Randolph Caldecott,
The Farmer's Boy
“ When I was a farmer, a Farmer's Boy, I used to keep my master's DOGS, With a Bow-wow here, and a Bow-wow there, And here a Bow, and there a Wow, And everywhere a Wow; With a Quack-quack here, and a Quack-quack there, &c., &c., &c. With a Grunt-grunt here, &c. With a Chuck-chuck here, &c. With a Baa-baa here, &c. With a Gee-wo here, &c. Says I,My pretty lass, will you come to the banks of the Aire oh? When I was a farmer, a Farmer's Boy, I used to keep my master's CHILDREN, With a Shouting here, and a Pouting there, And here a Shout, and there a Pout, And everywhere a Shout ”
