Mary Had A Little Lamb
John Noir Smith, Traditional
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece as white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go
It followed her to school one day
That was against the rules
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school
And so the teacher turned it out
But it still lingered near
It waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear
"Why does the lamb love Mary so?"
The children cried and cried
"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know"
The teacher it replied
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece as white as snow
