Now Tom with his pipe made such a noise That he pleased both the girls and boys, And they stopped to hear him play "Over the hills and far away".
Tom with his pipe did play with such skill That those who heard him could never stand still; Whenever they heard they began for to dance, Even pigs on their hind-legs would after him prance.
As Dolly was milking the cow one day, Tom took out his pipe and began for to play; So Doll and the cow danced "the Cheshire round", Till the pail was broke, and the milk ran on the ground.
He met old Dame Trot with a basket of eggs, He used his pipe, and she used her legs; She danced about till the eggs were all broke, She began for to fret, but he laughed at the joke.
He saw a cross fellow was beating an ass, Heavy laden with pots, pans, dishes, and glass; He took out his pipe and played them a tune, And the jack-ass's load was lightened full soon.
I do not like thee, Doctor Fell; The reason why I cannot tell. But this I know, and know full well, I do not like thee, Doctor Fell.
Please to remember The fifth of November, Gunpowder treason and plot. I see no reason Why gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot. Guy, Guy, Guy, Stick him up on high, Put him on the bonfire, And there let him die.
"Billy, Billy, come and play, While the sun shines bright as day."
"Yes, my Polly, so I will, For I love to please you still."
"Billy, Billy, have you seen Sam and Betsy on the green?"
"Yes, my Poll, I saw them pass, Skipping o'er the new-mown grass."
"Billy, Billy, come along, And I will sing a pretty song."
"O then, Polly, I'll make haste, Not one moment will I waste,
But will come and hear you sing, And my fiddle I will bring."
Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John Bless the bed that I lie on! Four corners to my bed, Five angels there lie spread; Two at my head, Two at my feet, One at my heart My soul to keep.
Johnny shall have a new bonnet, And Johnny shall go to the fair, And Johnny shall have a blue ribbon To tie up his bonny brown hair.
And why may not I love Johnny? And why may not Johnny love me? And why may not I love Johnny As well as another body?
And here's a leg for a stocking, And here's a foot for a shoe, And he has a kiss for his daddy, And two for his mammy, I trow.
