Sing A Song of Sixpence
Sing a song of sixpence
A government of quacks—

 

Four and twenty women
Paying in their tax.

 

When the money’s counted
Their’s is good as any.

 

Why not a ballot
 Fair as is a penny?

Original Mother Goose
Sing A Song of Sixpence
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye;
Four-and-twenty Blackbirds
Baked in a pie.

When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing;
Was not that a dainty dish
To set before a King?
