Lyrics
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow,
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day,
Which was against the rule,
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near,
And waited patiently about,
Till Mary did appear.

Lyrics
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One for the master, one for the dame,
And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One to mend the jerseys, one to mend the socks,
And one for the little girl with holes in her frocks.
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One for the sweater, one for the shawl,
And one for the blanket that hangs by the wall.
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
