Little Bo-Peep

Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep
And doesn't know where to find them;
Leave them alone. And they'll come home
Bringing their tails behind them

Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep
And dreamt she heard them bleating;
When she awoke, she found it a joke
For they were still a-fleeting

Then up she took her little crook
Determined for to find them;
She found them indee, but it made hеr heart bleed
For they's left thеir tails behind them

It happened one day, as Bp-Peep did stray
Into a meadow hard by
There she espied their tails side by side
All hung on a tree to dry

She heaved a sigh and wiped her eye
And over the hillocks went rambling
And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should
To tack each again to its lambkin

Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep
And doesn't know where to find them;
Leave them alone. And they'll come home
Bringing their tails behind them
