Old Mother Hubbard

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard,
To give her poor dog a bone.

But when she got there, her cupboard was bare;
And so the poor dog had none.

She went to the baker's to buy him some bread;
When she got back, the dog was dead.

She went to the undertaker's to buy him a coffin;
When she got back, the dog was a-laughing.

She took him a clean dish to get him some tripe;
When she came back, he was smoking a pipe.

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.

She went to the fruiterer's to buy him some fruit;
When she came back, he was playing the flute.

She went to the tailor's to buy him a coat.
When she came back, he was riding a goat.

She went to the cobbler's to buy him some shoes;
When she came back, he was reading the news.

She went to the seamstress to buy him some linen;
When she came back, the dog was a-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."
