Remember any old silly verses etc you were told as a child


Recommended Posts

I love that rhyme Nan, I think your memories better than mine. I can't remember many at all

I bet you remember this

Oh dear my dolly she's sick, sick , sick

Go and fetch the doctor quick, quick, quick

The doctor came with a ratatat

He came with his cane he came with his hat

 

He looked at poor dolly and shook his head

And said you must put her to bed, bed, bed

Keep her very warm and keep her very still

And when I come again I'll bring her a pill, pill, pill

 

I remember this poem as a song.

Miss Polly had a dolly who was sick sick sick

so we sent for the doctor to be quick quickquick

the doctor came with his bag and his hat

and he knocked on the door with a rat a tat tat

he looked at the dolly and he shook his head

Miss Polly you must put her straight to bed

he looked in his bag and he gave her a pill

I'll be back in the morning with my bill bill bill.

My dad was a man of few words, he would try to recite Ben Battle, but managed to forget most of it, the one he could remember was

 

When I was young and able

I could spit across the table

Now I'm old and grey

I can only spit half way.

One potato,two potato,three potato ,four

A boy stood on the burning deck

A p.....g on the ashes

A flame blew up his trouser leg

And burnt his bloody k......s

 

Ding, dang bell,

Pussey's in the well,

Who put him in ?

Little Johnny Flynn,

Who pulled himm out ?

Little Johnny Stout
