Bird Song
I had a little cock and the cock pleased me
And I fed my cock down under the tree;
And the cock went cockety crow:
Then joined in every neighbour's cock
And my cock belled unto.
I had a little duck and the duck pleased me
And I fed my duck down under the tree;
The duck went quack quack,
And the cock went cockety crow:
Then joined in every neighbour's cock
And my cock belled unto.
I had a little guinea and the guinea pleased me
And I fed my guinea down under the tree;
And the guinea went cook-back,
The duck went quack quack,
And the cock went cockety crow:
Then joined in every neighbour's cock
And my cock belled unto.
