Sing A Song Of Sixpence
From "Old Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes"
Let’s read together: Sing A Song Of Sixpence from Old Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye;
Four and twenty blackbirds
All 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 King was in his counting-house,
Counting out his money;
The Queen was in the parlor
Eating bread and honey.
The maid was in the garden
Hanging out the clothes;
When down came a blackbird,
And snipped off her nose!
Another version of the last two stanzas
…The King was in the parlour,
Counting out his money;
The Queen was in the kitchen
Eating bread and honey.
The maid was in the garden
Hanging out the clothes;
There came a little blackbird,
And snipped off her nose!
