Children's Nursery Rhyme Song Lyrics and Sound Clip

Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye,
Four-and-twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie,
When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing.
Wasn't that a dainty dish
To set before a king?

The king was in the counting house,
Counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlor,
Eating bread and honey,
The maid was in the garden,
Hanging out the clothes,
When along came a blackbird,
And landed on her nose!
