And liked to nibble something nice),
But Pussy's eyes so big and bright
Soon sent them scampering off in a fright.

wee willie winkie

wee willie winkie
runs through the town
upstairs and downstairs
in his nightgown
rapping at the windows
crying at the locks
are the children all in bed
now its 8 o'clock

3 tom cats

Not last night but the night before
3 tom cats came knocking at the door
I opened the door
and I let them in
they knocked me down with a rolling pin
one had a bugle, one had a drum
and one had a pancake stuck to his bum!

Little Jack

He wore a pair of tattered pants
A ragged roustabout
And through the torn crown of his cap
A lock of hair stuck out
His home was in a friendless street
His name was Little Jack

One day a bouncing baby boy
With head of curly hair
Escaped his mothers loving arms
Who, tired with other cares
Forgot her little baby one
Who crept upon the railway track
To play with the bright pebbles there

But see! Around the bend there comes
A swiftly flying train
It rattles and it whistles and it shreiks with might and main
But who's this little figure?
Running down the track...
His hat is gone
His feet are bare
Its ragged Little Jack

He picked the child up in his arms
And from the tracks the babe was safely tossed
But a slip, and a cry, the train rolled by
Poor Little Jack is gone

They found his mangled body there
Just where he slipped and fell
And brave men wept
Who'd never cared for him, when he was well
If there be starry crowns in Heaven
For little ones to wear
The star on Little Jacks would be
The brightest of any there.

The Wise Man built his house upon the rock

The rain came down and the floods came up
The rain came down and the floods came up
The rain came down and the floods came up
And the house upon the rock stood firm.

The foolish man built his house upon the sand
The foolish man built his house upon the sand
The foolish man built his house upon the sand
And the rain came tumbling down.

The rain came down and the floods came up
The rain came down and the floods came up
The rain came down and the floods came up
And the house upon the sand fell flat!

With four little tiny toes.
And as it opens in the sun
How those black beetles cut and run!

And rolls up safe, that poor hedgehog.
