Cfjere Wax a Croofeeb Jlan THERE was a crooked man, and he went a crooked mile,He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile;He bought a crooked cat, which caught a crooked mouse,And they all livd together in a little crooked house. LITTLE blue Betty lived in a den,She sold good ale to gentlemen:Gentlemen came every day,And little blue Betty hoppd away.She hoppd upstairs to make her bed,And she tumbled down and broke her head 20 MOTHER GOOSE MELODIES &om, Worn, tije lepers; i^on TOM, Tom, the pipers son,Stole a pig and away he run!The pig was eat, and Tom was beat,And Tom went roaring down the street!
