Old Mother Hubbard

 

Old Mother Hubbard

Went to her cupboard,

To give her poor dog a bone;

 

When she came there

The cupboard was bare,

And so the poor dog had none

 

 

She went to the baker's

To buy him some bread,

When she came back

The dog was dead!

 

She went to the undertaker's

To buy him a coffin;

When she came back

The dog was laughing.

 

She took a clean dish

To get him some tripe;

When she came back

He was smoking his pipe.

 

 

She went to the ale-house

To get him some beer;

When she came back

The dog sat in a chair.

 

She went to the tavern

For white wine and red;

When she came back

The dog stood on his head.

 

She went to the hatter's

To buy him a hat;

When she came back

He was feeding the cat.

 

She went to the barber's

To buy him a wig;

When she came back

He was dancing a jig.

To buy him some fruit;

When she came back

To buy him a coat;

When she came back

Old Mother Hubbard

She went to the cobbler's

To buy him some shoes;

When she came back

He was reading the news,

 

She went to the sempster's

To buy him some linen;

When she came back

The dog was spinning.

 

She went to the hosier's

To buy him some hose;

When she came back

He was dressed in his clothes.

 

The dame made a curtsy,

The dog made a bow;

The dame said, " Your servant,''

The dog said, " Bow-wow!
