Pot, its true.
Here, let me show you
What I can do.

And my spout.

Mary Had a Little Lamb

Mary had a little lamb,
Little lamb, little lamb;
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow.

Now, everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went, Mary went;
Now everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go.

It followed her to school one day,
School one day, school one day;
It followed her to school one day,
Which was against the rule.

It made the children laugh and shout,
Laugh and shout, laugh and shout;
It made the children laugh and shout,
To see a lamb at school.

And so the teacher turned it out,
Turned it out. turned it out;
And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near.

And waited patiently about,
Patiently about, patiently about;
And waited patiently about,
Till Mary did appear.

"Why does the lamb love Mary so?"
Love Mary so? love Mary so?
"Why does the lamb love Mary so?"
The eager children cry.

"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,"
Loves her so, loves her so;
"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,"
The teacher did reply.

And Incy Wincy Spider climbed up the spout again!

Jack And Jill.

Jack and Jill went up the hill,
To fetch a pail of water;

As fast as he could caper;
Went to bed to mend his head,
With vinegar and brown paper

Land of My Fathers

The land of my fathers is dear unto me
The land of the poets, the land of the free
Her patriots and heroes, her warriors so brave
For freedom their life's blood they gave.

Whilst seas surround
This land so proud
Oh, long may our old tongue remain.

For it's now eight o'clock."

I'd like to sail on the north wind across the winter sky.

I'd like to drift with the snowflakes way up high,
I'd like to drift with the snowflakes down through the winter sky.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

This is the original version - first published  in 1806 and
written by Ann Taylor (1782-1866) and Jane Taylor (1783-1824).

Twinkle twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are?
Up above the world so high ,
Like a diamond in the sky

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light, Twinkle, twinkle all the night.

Then the traveller in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.

In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
'Till the sun is in the sky.

As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveller in the dark,
Though I know not what you are - Twinkle, twinkle little star



Hey Little Hen

Hey little hen, when when when
Will you lay me an egg for my tea?
Get into your nest, do your very best,
Let it from your chest and I will do the rest.
Say little hen, when when when
Will you lay me an egg for my tea

The Little White Duck

There’s a little white duck (quack)

Sitting in the water.

A little white duck (quack)

Doing what he oughter.

He took a bite of a lily pad,

Flapped his wings and he said,

"I’m glad I’m a little white duck

Sitting in the water."

Quack, Quack, Quack.
