As I Was Going To St Ives (Medley) (Audio Sample and Lyrics)

Heya

Hark, hark, the dogs do bark,
The beggars are coming to town,
Some in rags and some in jags,
And one in a velvet gown.

As I was going to St Ives,
I met a man with seven wives,
And every wife had seven sacks,
And every sack had seven cats,
And every cat had seven kits,
Kits, cats, sacks and wives,
How many were going to St Ives?

Heya

Bless you, bless you Burnie Bee,
Say, when will your wedding be?
If it be tomorrow day,
Take your wings and fly away.

As I was going to St Ives,
I met a man with seven wives,
Every wife had seven sacks,
And every sack had seven cats,
And every cat had seven kits,
Kits, cats, sacks and wives,
How many were going to St Ives?

Teddy bear, teddy bear turn around,
Teddy bear, teddy bear touch the ground,
Teddy bear, teddy bear climb the stairs,
Teddy bear, teddy bear say your prayers,
Teddy bear, teddy bear turn out the light,
Teddy bear, teddy bear say ‘Good Night'.
