Second lineFirst line
Its fleece was white as snow
To fetch a pail of water
Went to the cupboard
Bake me a cake as fast as you can
How does your garden grow?
I, said the Sparrow
Tuesday's child is full of grace
Your house is on fire and your children all gone
Gently down the stream
A pocket full of rye
'You owe me five farthings' say the bells of St Martin's
On the tree top
Had a wife but couldn't keep her
She made some tarts
Kitty Fisher found it
Second lineFirst line
His wife could eat no lean
And doesn't know where to find them
Kissed the girls and made them cry
The cat and the fiddle
Born on a Monday
The old man is snoring
A pocket full of posies
Three men in a tub
The first star I see tonight
Was a merry old soul
Rich man, poor man, beggarman, thief
The mouse ran up the clock
He had ten thousand men
Whither shall I wander?
Going to the fair
