THE QUEEN OF HEARTS

THE QUEEN OF HEARTS.

The Queen of Hearts,
She made some Tarts,



 

All on a Summer's Day:



The Knave of Hearts,
He stole those Tarts,





 

And took them right away.



 

The King of Hearts,
Called for those Tarts,




And beat the Knave full sore:




 








The Knave of Hearts,
Brought back those Tarts,




And vowed he'd steal no more.

 

 


Sing a Song for Sixpence,


A Pocketful

 

of Rye;


 

Four-and-Twenty Blackbirds

 

Baked

 

in a Pie.


 

When the Pie was opened,
The Birds began to sing;
Was not 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 Parlour,

 

Eating Bread and Honey.

 

The Maid was in


the Garden,
 
 

 

Hanging out the Clothes;

 

There came a little Blackbird,

 


And snapped off her Nose.

 

But there came a
Jenny Wren
and popped it on again.
