When he got up to the top of the hill,
He blew his trumpet both loud and shrill,
For joy that he was safe
Through the town, oh!

When the fox came back to his den,

If you bring us such nice meat
From the town, oh!"

MY father he died, but I can't tell you how;
He left me six horses to drive in my plough:
With my wing wang waddle oh,

I'd fain have made a fortune, but lost the best half!

And let's drink tea.

LITTLE Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,
And can't tell where to find them;
Leave them alone, and they'll come home,
And bring their tails behind them.

Little Bo-peep fell fast asleep,
And dreamt she heard them bleating;
But when she awoke, she found it a joke,

Then up she took her little crook,
Determin'd for to find them;
She found them indeed, but it
