“Baa! Baa! Black sheep, have you any wool?”
“Yes, marry, have I, three bags full;
One for my master, and one for my dame,
But none for the little boy that lives down the lane!”
Tom, the Piper’s Son

Tom, Tom, the piper’s son,
Stole a pig and away did run;
The pig was eat, and Tom was beat,
And Tom went roaring down the street.

1. There was a lady loved a swine,
“Honey!” said she;
“Pig-hog, wilt thou be mine?”
“Hunc!” said he.
2. “I’ll build thee a silver sty,
Honey!” said she;
“And in it thou shalt lie!”
“Hunc!” said he.
3. “Pinned with a silver pin,
Honey!” said she;
“That thou mayest go out and in,”
“Hunc!” said he.
4. “Will thou have me now,
Honey?” said she;
“Speak, or my heart will break,”
“Hunc!” said he.
