Hot-cross buns!
Old woman runs!
One a penny, two a penny,
If ye have no daughters,
Give them to your sons.
One a penny, two a penny,
Hot-cross buns!
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe,
She had so many children she did n’t know what to do;
She gave them some broth without any bread,
She whipped them all round, and sent them to bed.
Girls and boys, come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day;
Leave your supper, and leave your sleep,
And come with your playfellows into the street.
Come with a whoop,come with a call,
Come with a good will or come not at all.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
Old Mother Hubbard,
She went to the cupboard
To get her poor dog a bone;
But when she came there,
The cupboard was bare,
And so the poor dog had none.
Polly, put the
kettle on,
Polly, put the
kettle on,
Polly, put the
kettle on,
And we ’ll
all have
tea.
A halfpenny roll will serve us all.
You find milk, and I 'll find flour,
And we 'll have a pudding in half an hour.
Jack Sprat could eat no fat,
His wife could eat no lean;
And so, betwixt them both,
They licked the platter clean.
