Come And Buy My Toys |
Smiling girls and rosy boys |
Come and buy my little toys |
Monkeys made of gingerbread |
And sugar horses painted red |
Rich men’s children running past |
Their fathers dressed in hose |
Golden hair and mud of many acres on their shoes |
Gazing eyes and running wild |
Past the stocks and over stiles |
Kiss the window merry child |
But come and buy my toys |
You’ve watched your father plough the fields with a ram’s horn |
Sowed it wide with peppercorn and furrowed with a bramble thorn |
Reaped it with a sharpened scyth, threashed it with a quill |
The miller told your father that he’d work it with the greatest will |
Now your watching’s over you must play with girls and boys |
Leave the parsley on the stalls |
Come and buy my toys |
You shall own a cambric shirt |
You shall work your father’s land |
But now you shall play in the market square |
Till you’ll be a man |
Smiling girls and rosy boys |
Come and buy my little toys |
Monkeys made of gingerbread |
And sugar horses painted red |
