Hey Diddle Diddle - Popular Baby Rhymes

Hey, diddle, diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon,
   
The little dog laughed,
To see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Ding dong bell - Popular Nursery Rhymes Collection

Ding dong bell,
Pussy's in the well.

Who put her in?
Little Johnny Flynn.

Who pulled her out?
Little Tommy Stout.

What a naughty boy was that,
Try to drown poor Pussycat.

Who never did any harm,
But killed all the mice,

In the Farmer's barn.

Bye baby bunting -Popular Nursery Rhymes Collection

Bye, Baby Bunting.
Daddy’s gone a-hunting,
To get a little rabbit-skin,
To wrap my Baby Bunting in.

Bye Baby Bunting,
Daddy's gone a-hunting,
Mummy's gone a-milking,
Sister's gone a-silking,
Brother's gone to buy a skin,
To wrap the Baby Bunting in.

Jack Spratt - Popular Nursery Rhymes

Jack Sprat could eat no fat,
His wife could eat no lean.
So between the two of them,
They licked the platter clean.

Jack ate all the lean, Joan ate all the fat,
The bone they picked it clean.
Then gave it to the cat.

Jack Sprat was wheeling,
His wife by the ditch.
The barrow turned over,
And in the ditch she fell.

Says Jack, "She'll be drowned!"
But Joan did reply,
"I don't think I shall,
For the ditch is quite dry."
