< THE FARMER AND THE QUEEN >”She’s coming,”the farmer said to the owl.”Oh, what shall I, what shall I do?Shall I bow when she comes?Shall I twiddle my thumbs?”The owl asked, ”Who?””The Queen, the Queen, the royal Queen─She’ll pass the farm today.Shall I salute?” he asked the horse.The horse said,”Nay.””Shall I give her a gift?” he asked the wren.”A lovely memento for her to keep?An egg or a peach or an ear of corn?”The wren said, ”Cheap.””But should I curtsy or should I cheer?Oh, here’s her carriage now.”What should I do?” he asked the dog.The dog said, ”Bow.”And so he did, and so she passed,Oh, tra lala lala,”She smiled, she did!” he told the sheep.The sheep said, ”Bah.”
< FOR SALE >One sister for sale!One sister for sale!One crying and spying young sister for sale!I’m really not kidding,So who’ll start the bidding?Do I hear a dollar?A nickel?A penny?Oh, isn’t there, isn’t there, isn’t there anyOne kid who will buy this old sister for sale,This crying and spying young sister for sale?
