NURSERY JINGLES

Cock-a-doodle-do!
My dame will dance with you,
While master fiddles with fiddle-stick
For dame and doodle-do!


III.

Little Jack-a-dandy
Wanted sugar-candy,
And fairly for it cried.
But little Billy Cook,
Who always reads a book,
Shall have a horse to ride.


IV.

Bye-baby-bunting,
Daddy's gone a-hunting,
To buy a little rabbit skin
To wrap up little baby in.


V.

Rock-a-bye, baby, on the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock,
When the wind lulls, the cradle will fall,
Down will come baby and cradle and all.


VI.

There were two birds sat on a stone,
One flew away, and then there was one.
The other flew after, and then there was none,
And nothing was left but the stone alone.
