Babes in the Wood

The Babes in the Wood

My dear do you know
How a long time ago
Two poor little children,
Whose names I don't know,
Were stolen away
On a fine summer's day.
And left in a wood
As I've heard people say.

And when it was night,
So sad was their plight,
The sun it went down,
And the moon gave no light!
They sobbed and they sighed
And they bitterly cried
And the poor little things,
They lay down and died.

And when they were dead,
The robins so red,
Brought strawberry leaves
And over them spread;
And all the day long,
They sang them this song--
Poor babes in the wood!
Poor babes in the wood!
And don't you remember
The babes in the wood?
