He's under the haycock fast asleep.
Will you wake him? No, not I;
For if I do, he'll be sure to cry.

Little girl, little girl, where have you been?
Gathering roses to give to the queen.

Little Jack Horner
Sat in a corner,
Eating his Christmas pie.
He put in his thumb,
And he pulled out a plum,

Little head and no eyes.

Four corners to my bed,
