Little Bo Peep (Female Vocal Version)

Little Bo Peep (Female Vocal Version) - Songs For Children

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 all 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 she rambling

And tried she could as a shepherdess should

To touch her again each tail's lamb came
