Baa baa black sheep song lyrics
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One for the master,
And one for the dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One for the master,
And one for the dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.
Thank you said the master,
Thank you said the dame
And thank you said the little boy who lived down the lane.
Baa baa black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One for the master, one for the dame,
And one for the little girl who lives down the lane.
Thank you said the master,
Thank you said the dame
And thank you said the little girl who lived down the lane.
(Repeat as many times as you'd like!)
