Bye, Baby Bunting
Bye, baby bunting,
Father's gone a-hunting,
Mother's gone a-milking,
Sister's gone a-silking,
And brother's gone to buy a skin
To wrap the baby bunting in.

A Man with a Nickel
A man with a nickel,
A sword, and a sickle,
A pipe, and a paper of pins
Set out for the Niger
To capture a tiger--
And that's how my story begins.
When he saw the wide ocean,
He soon took a notion
'T would be nicer to stay with his friends.
So he traded his hat
For a tortoise-shell cat--
And that's how the chronicle ends.

Hark! Hark! The Dogs Bark
Hark! Hark! The dogs bark,
The beggars are coming to town;
Some in rags and some in tags,
And some in a silken gown.
Some gave them white bread,
And some gave them brown,
And some gave them a good horse-whip,
And sent them out of the town.

Rock a Bye Baby
Rock a bye, baby,
in the tree top.
When the wind blows,
the cradle will rock.
When the bough breaks,
the cradle will fall,
And down will come baby,
cradle and all.
