One, two, buckle my shoe,
Three, four, open the door,
Five, six, pick up the sticks,
Seven, eight, lay them straight,
Nine, ten, a good fat hen,
Eleven, twel', bake it well,
Thirteen, fourteen, maids a-courting,
Fifteen, sixteen, maids a-kissing,
Seventeen, eighteen, maids a-waiting,
Nineteen, twenty, my stomach's empty.
***
As I was walking down the lake,
I met a little rattlesnake.
I gave him so much jelly-cake,
It made his little belly ache.
One, two, three, out goes she!
***
As I went up the apple tree,
All the apples fell on me;
Bake a puddin', bake a pie,
Did you ever tell a lie?
Yes I did, and many times.
O-U-T, out goes she
Right in the middle of the deep blue sea.

John says to John,
How much are your geese?
John says to John,
Twenty cents a piece.
John says to John,
That's too dear;
John says to John,
Get out of here!
