37. Jack and Jill Five little ducks went out to play
Went up the hill Over the hill and far away
To fetch a pail of water. The mother duck said Quack, Quack, quack, quack
Jack fell down And four little ducks came waddling back
And broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
Little Bo peep has lost her sheep
And doesn't know where to find them.
Rhyme
Leave them alone and they'll come home,
Jack be nimble Bringing their tails behind them.
Jack be quick
Jack jump over
The candlestick.
Old King Cole was a merry old soul, and a merry old soul was he;
He called for his pipe in the middle of the night
And he called for his fiddlers three. Hickory Dickory Dock
The mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one
The mouse ran down
Hickory Dickory Dock
