"John Patch made the match, John Clint made the flint, John Puzzle made the muzzle, John Crowder made the powder, John Block made the stock, John Brammer made the rammer, John Wyming made the priming, John Scott made the shot, But John Ball shot them all." KITTY ALONE. There was a frog lived in a well, Kitty alone, kitty alone; There was a frog lived in a well, Kitty alone, and I. There was a frog lived in a well, And a merry mouse in a mill; This frog he would a-wooing ride, Kitty alone, kitty alone; This frog he would a-wooing ride, And on a snail he got astride; Cock me cary, kitty alone, He rode till he came to my Lady Mouse Hall, Kitty alone, kitty alone; He rode till he came to my Lady Mouse Hall, And there he did both knock and call; Cock me cary, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. Quoth he: "Miss Mouse, I'm come to thee," Kitty alone, kitty alone; Quoth he: "Miss Mouse, I'm come to thee, To see if thou canst fancy me;" Cock me cary, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. Quoth she: "Answer I'll give you none," Kitty alone, kitty alone; Quoth she: "Answer I'll give you none, Until my uncle Rat come home;" Cock me cary, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. And when her uncle Rat came home, Kitty alone, kitty alone; And when her uncle Rat came home "Who's been here since I've been gone?" Cock me cary, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. Sir, there's been a worthy gentleman," Kitty alone, kitty alone; "Sir, there's been a worthy gentleman That's been here since you've been gone;" Cock me cary, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. The frog he came whistling through the brook, Kitty alone, kitty alone; The frog he came whistling through the brook, And there he met with a dainty duck; Kitty alone, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. This duck she swallowed him up with a pluck, Kitty alone, kitty alone; This duck she swallowed him up with a pluck, So there's an end of my history book; Cock me cary, kitty alone, Kitty alone, and I. |
