The Complete Book of Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes: The Classic Edition
JACK AND HIS FIDDLE Jacky come and give me thy fiddle If ever thou mean to thrive Nay I’ll not give my fiddle To any man alive If I should give my fiddle They’ll think that I’ve gone mad For many a joyous day My fiddle and I have had A PLUM PUDDING Flour of England fruit of Spain Met together in a shower of rain Put in a bag tied round with a string If you’ll tell me this riddle I’ll give you a ring 14
GEORGY PORGY Georgy Porgy pudding and pie Kissed the girls and made them cry When the boys came out to play Georgy Porgy ran away TEETH AND GUMS Thirty white horses upon a red hill Now they tramp now they champ now they stand still 15
COME OUT TO PLAY Girls and boys come out to play The moon doth shine as bright as day Leave your supper and leave your sleep And come with your playfellows into the street Come with a whoop come with a call Come with a good will or not at all Up the ladder and down the wall A half penny roll will serve us all You find milk and I’ll find flour And we’ll have a pudding in half an hour 17
