And what about a Cowboy,Policeman, Jailer,Engine-driver,Or Pirate Chief?What about a Postman—or a Keeper at the Zoo?What about the Circus Man who lets the people through?And the man who takes the pennies for the round-abouts and swings,Or the man who plays the organ, and the other man who sings?What about a Conjuror with rabbits in his pockets?What about a Rocket Man who’s always making rockets?

Oh, there’s such a lot of things to do and such a lot to be That there’s always lots of cherries on my little cherry-tree!
