¶Lyrics / Text

Sing a song, sing a song of sixpence, A pocket full 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 the 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, Up flew a blackbird, And bit off her nose!
