Chook-Chook-Chook

Chook-Chook-Chook
Good morning, Mrs. Hen.
How many chickens have you got?
Madam, I've got ten.
Four of them are yellow,
And four of them are brown,
And two of them are speckled red,
The nicest in the town.

44. Hickety pickety

Hickety pickety, my black hen,
She lay's eggs for gentlemen;
Sometimes nine, sometimes ten,
Hickety pickety, my black hen.

45. Hickory Dickory Dock

Hickory Dickory dock
The mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one
The mouse ran down
Hickory Dickory dock

Hickory Dickory there

The pig flew up in the air

The man in brown

Soon brought him down

Hickory Dickory there

Hickory Dickory Sacaradown

How many miles to Richmond town

Turn to the left and turn to the right

And you may get there by Saturday night

46. Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe

Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe,
Get it down by half past two

Stitch it up and stitch it down

Then I’ll give you half a Crown

47. Oranges and lemons

Oranges and lemons
Say the bells of St Clements
You owe me five farthings
Say the bells of St Martins
When will you pay me?
Say the bells of Old Bailey
When I grow rich
Say the bells of Shoreditch
When will that be?
Say the bells of Stepney
I'm sure I don't know
Says the great bell at Bow
Here comes a candle to light you to bed
Here comes a chopper to chop off your head

48. Boys and girls come out to play

Boys and girls come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day,
Leave your supper, and leave your sleep,
And join your playfellows in the street.
Come with a whoop, come with a call,
Come with a good will, or not at all.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
A halfpenny loaf will serve us all.
You find milk, and I'll find flour,
And we'll have a pudding in half an hour.

49. Wee Willie Winkie

Wee Willie Winkie
Runs through the town.
Upstairs, and downstairs
In his night gown.
Tapping at the window
Crying through the lock
Are the children all in bed?
For now’s eight o'clock.

50. Goosey, Goosey, gander,

Whither shall I wander?
Upstairs, and downstairs,
And in my lady's chamber.

There I met an old man
Who wouldn't say his prayers!
I took him by the left leg
And threw him down the stairs.

51.Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

Then the trav'ler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark;
How could he see where to go,
If you did not twinkle so?
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

In the dark blue sky you keep, and
Through my curtains often peep,
For you never shut your eyes,
Till the morning sun does rise.

As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the trav'ler in the dark,
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle on, please, little star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,

52. Star light star bright

Star light star bright,
The first star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have the wish I wish tonight.

53. How many miles to Babylon

How many miles to Babylon?
Three score and ten.
Can I get there by candlelight?
Aye, and back again.
If your feet are nimble and light,
You'll get there by candlelight.
