There was a little Man.

 

 

There was a little Man,
And he had a little Gun,
And the Ball was made of Lead
He went unto the Brooke,
To shoot at a Duck,
And he hit her
Upon the Head.

Then he went home,
Unto his Wife Joan,
To bid her a good fire make,
To roast the Duck,
That swam in the Brook,
And he would go fetch
Her the Drake.
