Simple Simon
Simple Simon met a pie-man, going to the fair...
Simple Simon met a pie-man, going to the fair...
Simple Simon met a pieman,
Going to the fair;
Says Simple Simon to the pieman,
“Let me taste your ware.”
Says the pieman to Simple Simon,
“Show me first your penny.”
Says Simple Simon to the pieman,
“Indeed I have not any.”
Simple Simon went a-fishing
For to catch a whale:
All the water he had got
Was in his mother’s pail!
