54 Traditional Nursery Songs.
T HERE was a little guinea pig, Who being little was not big; He always walked upon his feet, And never fasted when he ate.
When from a place he ran away, He never at that place did stay; And while he ran, as I am told, He ne'er stood still for young or old.
He often squeak'd, and sometimes violent, And when he squeak'd he ne'er was silent; Though ne'er instructed by a cat, He knew a mouse was not a rat.
One day, as I am certified, He took a whim and fairly died, And, as I'm told by men of sense, He never has been living since.
T HERE was a little man, And he had a little gun, And his bullets were made of lead, lead, lead; He went to the brook And saw a little duck, And he shot it through the head, head, head.
