	Mother Goose

	Mother Goose had a house, 'Twas built in a wood, Where an owl at the door For sentinel stood. She had a son, Jack, A plain-looking lad, He was not very good, Nor yet very bad. She sent him to market, A live goose he bought; See, Mother, says he, I have not been for nought. Jack's goose and her gander Grew very fond; They'd both eat together, Or swim in the pond. Jack found one fine morning, As I have been told, His goose had laid him An egg of pure gold. Jack ran to his mother The news for to tell, She called him a good boy And said it was well.

	Sing A Song Of Sixpence

	Sing a song of sixpence, A pocket full of rye; Four and twenty blackbirds Baked in a pie. When the pie was opened, They all began to sing. Now, wasn't that a dainty dish To set before the King? The King was in his countinghouse, Counting out his money; The Queen was in the parlor Eating bread and honey. The maid was in the garden, Hanging out the clothes. Along there came a big black bird And snipped off her nose!


	A Tisket, A Tasket

	A tisket, a tasket, A green and yellow basket, I wrote a letter to my love, And on the way, l dropped it. I dropped it, l dropped it, My green and yellow basket. A little girlie picked it up And put it in her pocket. She was truckin' on down the avenue, Without a single thing to do, She was peck, peck. peckin' all around When she spied it on the ground. She took it, she took it, My green and yellow basket, And if she doesn't bring it back I don't know what I'll do.
