Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep And doesn’t know where to find them Leave them alone, and they’ll come home Bringing their tails behind them
Little Bo Peep fell fast asleep And dreamt she heard them bleating But when she awoke, she found it a joke For they were still a-fleeting
Then up she took her little crook Determined for to find them She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed For they’d left their tails behind them
It happened one day, as Bo Peep did stray Into a meadow hard by There she espied their tails side by side All hung on a tree to dry
She heaved a sigh and wiped her eye And over the hillocks went rambling And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should To tack each again to its lambkin
