NURSERY RHYMES

Old Mother Hubbard, she went to the
cupboard,
To get her poor dog a bone.
When she got there, the cupboard was
bare,
And so the poor dog had none.

She went to the baker's to buy him some
bread.
But when she came back the poor dog was dead.

She went to the undertakers to buy him
a coffin,
And when she came back the dog was
laughing.

She went to the draper's to buy him some
linen,
And when she came back the good dog
was spinning.

She went to the hosier's to buy him some
hose,
And when she came back he was dressed
in his clothes.

The dame made a curtsy, the dog made
a bow,
The dame said "your servant," the dog
said "Bow-wow,"

She went to the hatter's to buy him a
hat,
And when she came back he was feeding
the cat.

She went to the tailor's to buy him a
coat,
And when she came back he was riding
the goat.

She went to the barber's to buy him a
wig,
And when she came back he was dancing
a jig.

She went to the butcher's to get him some
tripe,
And when she came back he was smoking
a pipe.

She went to the fish-shop to buy him some
fish,
And when she came back he was washing
the dish.

She went to the tavern for white wine and
red,
And when she came back the dog stood
on his head.
