Little Betty Pringle she had a pig,

It was not very little and not very big;

Betty Pringle she lay down and died;

So there was an end of one, two, three,

Johnny Pringle he,

Betty Pringle she,

And Piggy Wiggy wee.

Mary had a little lamb...

Mary had a little lamb,

Its fleece was white as snow;

And everywhere that Mary went

The lamb was sure to go.

It followed her to school one day,

That was against the rule;

It made the children laugh and play

To see a lamb at school.

And so the teacher turned it out,

But still it lingered near,

And waited patiently about

Till Mary did appear.

Why does the lamb love Mary so?

The eager children cry;

Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,

The teacher did reply.

Mary had a pretty bird...

Mary had a pretty bird,

Feathers bright and yellow;

Slender legs - upon my word,

He was a pretty fellow.

The sweetest notes he always sung,

Which much delighted Mary;

And near the cage she'd ever sit,

To hear her own canary.
