I had a little hen, the prettiest ever seen,
She washed me the dishes and kept the house clean;
She went to the mill to fetch me some flour,
She brought it home in less than an hour;
She baked me my bread, she brewed me my ale,
She sat by the fire and told many a fine tale.
Hickety pickety, my black hen.
She lays eggs for gentlemen.
Sometimes nine and sometimes ten,
Hickety pickety, my black hen.
And Bingo was his name-o.
B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O
And Bingo was his name-o.
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir
Three bags full
One for the master
One for the dame
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane
“I’m a Little Piggy” sung to the tune of “I’m a little Teapot”
I’m a little piggy
Short and stout
Here are my ears
Here is my snout
When I see the
Farmer in my pen,
I oink, oink, oink
and wiggle my tail.

The hens in the coop go cluck……….
The lambs on the hill go baa…
The ducks on the pond go quack…
Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,
And can’t tell where to find them;
Leave them alone, And they’ll come home,
Wagging their tails behind them.
