The Wheels On The Bus
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
round and round, round and round.
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
all day long.
The bell on the bus goes ding, ding, ding,
ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
The bell on the bus goes ding, ding, ding,
all day long.
The doors on the bus opens and shuts,
opens and shuts, opens and shuts.
The doors on the bus opens and shuts,
all day long.
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish,
swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish.
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish,
swish all day long.
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep,
beep all day long.
The babies on the bus go fast asleep,
fast asleep, fast asleep.
The babies on the bus go fast asleep
all day long.
The people on the bus go up and down,
up and down, up and down.
The people on the bus go up and down,
all day long.

Sweet Baby
Sweet baby, sleep; what ails my dear?
What ails my darling thus to cry?
Be still, my child, and lend thine ear,
To hear me sing thy lullaby
My pretty lamb, forbear to weep;
Be still, my dear; sweet baby, sleep.
Thou blessed soul, what can'st thou fear
What things to thee can mischief do?
Thy God is now thy father dear,
His Holy Spouse thy mother too.
Sweet baby, then forbear to weep;
Be still, my babe; sweet baby, sleep.
Whilst thus thy lullaby I sing,
For thee great blessings ripening be;
Thine Eldest Brother is a king,
And hath a kingdom bought for thee.
Sweet baby, then forbear to weep;
Be still, my babe; sweet baby, sleep.
Sweet baby, sleep, and nothing fear;
For whatsoever thee offends.
By thy protector threatened are,
And God and angels are thy friends.
Sweet baby, then, forbear to weep;
Be still, my babe; sweet baby, sleep.
