Find lyrics and words for Childrens Nursery Rhymes , Songs & Poems - The Greedy Boy:

The Greedy Boy

Sammy smith would drink and eat
From morning unto night;
He filled his mouth so full of meat
It was a shameful sight.

Sometimes he gave a book or toy
For apples, cake, or plum;
And grudged if any other boy
Should taste a single crumb.

Indeed, he ate and drank so fast,
And used to stuff and cram,
The name they called him by at last
Was often Greedy Sam.

About Nursery Rhymes

A nursery rhyme is a traditional song or poem taught to young children, originally in the nursery. Learning nursery rhymes assists in the development of vocabulary and in some cases basic counting skills. It also introduces children to enjoy music. Often actions, movement or dances are associated with these nursery rhymes and children songs.
