Polly put the kettle on,
Polly put the kettle on,
Polly put the kettle on,
We'll all have tea.
Sukey take it off again,
Sukey take it off again,
Sukey take it off again,
They've all gone away.

A nursery rhyme published by
Joseph Dale in London in 1803.
Now sing along~
What a nice memory! I'd sing along if I knew the tune!
ReplyDeleteNow I'll be humming that all day. (That's a nice thing.)
ReplyDeleteI always felt sorry for poor Sukey. Sounds like she was named after a cow.
ReplyDeleteI know the rhyme but I must confess I don't know the tune!
