Mary had a little lamb,
|
|
His fleece was white as snow,
|
|
And everywhere that Mary went,
|
|
The lamb was sure to go.
|
|
|
|
He 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.
|
|
|
|
"Why does the lamb love Mary so?"
|
|
The eager children cry.
|
|
"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know."
|
|
The teacher did reply.
