mother goose songs - burl ives lyrics

Loading...

as i did walk by hampstead fair
i came upon mother goose ** so i turned her loose **
she was screaming
and a foreign student said to me **
was it really true there are elephants and lions too
in piccadilly circus?

walked down by the bathing pond
to try and catch some sun
saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing
into handkerchiefs as one
i don’t believe they knew
i was a schoolboy

and a bearded lady said to me **
if you start your raving and your misbehaving **
you’ll be sorry
then the chicken*fancier came to play **
with his long rеd beard (and his sister’s weird:
shе drives a lorry)

laughed down by the putting green **
i popped ’em in their holes
four and twenty labourers were labouring **
digging up their gold
i don’t believe they knew
that i was long john silver
saw johnny scarecrow make his rounds
in his jet*black mac (which he won’t give back) **
stole it from a snowman
