Ride A Cock-Horse To Banbury Cross

Ride a Cock-Horse to Banbury Cross,

To see a fine Lady Get on a white Horse,

With rings on her fingers, and bells on her toes, She shall have music wherever she goes.

A FARMER WENT TROTTING UPON HIS GREY MARE.

A Farmer went trotting upon his grey Mare; Bumpety, bumpety, bump! With his Daughter behind him, so rosy and fair; Lumpety, lumpety, lump!

A Raven cried "Croak!" and they all tumbled down; Bumpety, bumpety, bump! The Mare broke her knees and the Farmer his crown; Lumpet, lumpety, lump!

The mischievous Raven flew laughing away; Bumpety, bumpety, bump! And vowed he would serve them the same the next day; Lumpety, lumpety, lump!
