To fetch a pail of water,

Jack fell down

And broke his crown,

And Jill came tumbling after.

 

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,

All the kings’ horses and all the kings’ men,

Couldn’t put Humpty together again.

 

Hickory Dickory Dock,

The mouse ran up the clock,

The clock struck one,

The mouse ran down,

Hickory Dickory Dock.

 

Twinkle Twinkle little star

How I wonder what you are

Up above the world so high

Like a diamond in the sky.

 

Are you sleeping, Are you sleeping?

Brother John, brother John,

Morning bells are ringing,

Morning bells are ringing,

Ding dong bell, ding dong bell.
