1. Little Jack Horner/Little Miss Muffet
Little Jack Horner
Sat in a corner
Eating his Christmas pie;
He put in his thumb,
And pull'd out a plum
And said, "What a good boy am I."
Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away.

8. There Was an Old Woman
There was an old woman who swallowed a fly
I don’t know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she’ll die
There was an old woman who swallowed a spider
It wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she’ll die
There was an old woman who swallowed a bird
How absurd, she swallowed a bird
She swallowed the bird, to catch the spider
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she’ll die
There was an old woman who swallowed a cat
Imagine that, she swallowed a cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
How absurd, she swallowed a bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she’ll die
There was an old woman she swallowed a dog
What a hog, she swallowed a dog
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
Imagine that, she swallowed a cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
How absurd, she swallowed a bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she’ll die
There was an old woman who swallowed a horse
She died, of course!

12. Jimmy Cracked Corn
When I was young I used to wait
On master and hand him his plate
Passed him the bottle when he got dry
And brushed away the blue-tail fly
Chorus
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
My master's gone away
When he rode in the afternoon
I followed with my hickory broom
The pony being very shy
bitten by the blue-tail fly
Chorus
One day he rode around the farm
The flies so numerous they did swarm
One chanced to bite him on the thigh
The devil take the blue-tail fly
Chorus
The pony, man he jumped, he pitched
He threw my master in the ditch
He died and the jury wondered why
The verdict was the blue-tail fly
Chorus
They laid him under a 'simmon tree
His epitaph is there to see
"Beneath this stone I'm forced to lie
The victim of the blue-tail fly"

2. Over in the Meadow
Over in the meadow,
In the sand in the sun
Lived an old mother toadie
And her little toadie one
"Wink!" said the mother;
"I wink!" said the one,
So they winked and they blinked
In the sand in the sun
Over in the meadow,
Where the stream runs blue
Lived an old mother fish
And her little fishes two
"Swim!" said the mother;
"We swim!" said the two,
So they swam and they leaped
Where the stream runs blue
Over in the meadow,
In a hole in a tree
Lived an old daddy bluebird
And his little birdies three
"Sing!" said the daddy;
"We sing!" said the three
So they sang and were glad
In a hole in the tree
Over in the meadow,
In the reeds on the shore
Lived an old mama muskrat
And her little ratties four
"Dive!" said the mama
"We dive!" said the four
So they dove and they burrowed
In the reeds on the shore
Over in the meadow,
In a snug beehive
Lived a daddy honey bee
And his little bees five
"Buzz!" said the daddy;
"We buzz!" said the five
So they buzzed and they hummed
In the snug beehive

A penny for a spool of thread
A penny for a needle
That's the way the money goes
Pop -- goes the weasel!
Grooper has the whooping cough
And Sally has the measles
That’s the way the doctor goes
Pop—goes the weasel! Repeat Chorus

Do Your your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?

Can you throw them o’er your shoulder
Like a Continental soldier?

Are they short or are they thin?
Are they tall or wide?
If you raise them fairly high
Do they get you where you’re going
Are they faster are they slower
Tell me ‘bout your legs
Have you got a tail
That is pretty or not
Is it curly or straight
Have you given it a name
Is short or is it long
Is it wild or tame
Have you got a tail?
Do your ears hang high?
Do they stand up in the sky?
Do they wrinkle when they’re wet?
Do they stand up when they’re dry?
Do you wave them to your neighbor?
With a minimum of flavor?
Do your ears hang high?
Do you wave them to your neighbor
With a minimum of flavor?
Do your ears hang high? Repeat
