Then clash out a welcome,
Let all the bells sound, come,
To give her a welcoming proud and sweet.
How her blue eyes will beam,
And her golden curls gleam,
When the sound of our singing rings down the street.

On the top of the wall of the town we go.
Shall we talk to the stars, or talk to the moon,
Or run along home to our dinner so soon?

ON THE WALL TOP.
So high--so high on the wall we run,
The nearer the sky--why, the nearer the sun,
If you give me one penny, I'll give you two,
For that's the way good neighbours do.

Tip-a-Toe,
See them go;
One, two, three--

And the Lady fair.
And what did they sing?
Oh, "Ring-a-ding-ding;"
And the Black Crow flew off
With the Lady's Ring.

And what time does she go to bed?"
"Well, eight o'clock's the rule.
