Old King Cole was a merry old soul,
and a merry old soul was he;
He called for his pipe and he called for his bowl
And he called for his fiddlers three.
Every fiddler had a very fine fiddle,
and a very fine fiddle had he;
There's none so rare that can compare
With King Cole and his fiddlers three.

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.

Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened the birds began to sing,
Wasn't that a dainty dish to set before the king?

The queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey
The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird and snipped off her nose!

Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,

There are several versions of the origins of
Mother Goose and nursery rhymes. It is often
agreed that Mother Goose is a collection of nursery
rhymes that were orignially published in the 18th
century in London, England. But some say there was
a French connection as well.
When rhymes and jingles and stories are passed
down from generation to generation there are
frequently several variations of the same verses.
The one that is ~right~ is the one that you use and like.
