[woodpops]

Stupid question I know but I thought I knew all the nursery rymes going. DD has started talking as a 21 month does. She keeps doing all of the actions to Miss Polly but I can't make the words out can anyone kindly tell me ALL the words to miss polly please????

even more amazing!

while we are on the topic does anyone know the words to
Horsey Horsey don't you stop...

keep starting it with dd and then realising I don't know it!!

Horsey, horsey, don't you stop,
let your little feet go clickety clop,
let your tail go swish and your wheels go round,
gee gee up, we're homeward bound!

I think!

Horsey Horsey don't you stop,
Just let your hooves go clippety clop,
Your wheels go round and your .................
Giddey up its homeward trot

Thats what i sing and i have to hum to fill in the gap!!
I'm sure someone else will know the proper version

Our version is:

Horsey Horsey, don't you stop
Just let your feet go clippitity clop
Yours tail goes swish and your wheels go round
Giddy up, we're homeward bound

We ain't in a hurry, we ain't in a flurry
So don't go tearing down the road
We ain't in a hustle, we ain't in a bustle
And we ain't go a very heavy load

So....

(Repeat first verse again)

how odl is the horse then
i reckon miss polly about 48

48, with a baby? Possible I guess but I'd have had her more in mid to late 20s, maybe early 30s TBH.

does anyone know the words to a song about horseys, that goes something something

"... just like an Indian rajah"

I can't find the whole lyrics in any book I've come across maybe it's not PC anymore?

"Rumpety-bumpety-bumpety-bump
Here comes the galloping major
Rumpety-bumpety-bumpety-bump
Just like an Indian rajah"

Rumpety-bumpety-bumpety-bump
Here comes the galloping major
Rumpety-bumpety-bumpety-bump
Just like an Indian rajah

All the girls declare
He?s a grand old stager
Rumpety-bumpety-bumpety-bump
Here comes the galloping major!

Miss Polly

Miss Polly had a dolly who was sick, sick, sick
So she called for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick
The doctor came with his bag and his hat
And he knocked on the door with a rat-a-tat-tat
He looked at the dolly and he shook his head
He said, 'Miss Polly put her straight to bed'
He wrote on a paper for a pill, pill, pill
I?ll be back in the morning with my bill, bill bill.

Miss Polly?s other dolly had a pain pain pain
The doctor had to come again gain gain
Where does it hurt
In your foot or your ear
Dolly said my tummy hurts here here here
He looked at the dolly and he shook his head
He said, 'Miss Polly put her straight to bed'
He gave her some pink stuff
And before too long
Dolly?s tummy ache was gone gone gone

Miss Polly?s little teddy felt sore sore sore
The doctor had to come once more more more
Where does it hurt
In your knees or your toes
Teddy said I?m blocked in my nose nose nose
He looked at the teddy and he gave a smile
He said, 'Miss Polly he?ll be fine in a while
Tuck him up nicely with a glass of warm honey
Soon Teddy?s nose will be runny runny runny

Miss Polly had a Dolly

Miss Polly had a Dolly that was sick, sick, sick
So she phoned for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick
The doctor came with his bag and his hat
And he knocked on the door with a rat-a-tat-tat.

He looked at the dolly and he shook his head.
And he said, Miss Polly, put her straight to bed.
He wrote on his paper for a pill, pill, pill.
I?ll be back in the morning with my bill, bill, bill.

Miss Polly's little dolly soon got out of bed,
So she called out the doctor and she said, said, said,
I don't think that dolly really was that ill,
So I don?t think that I?m going to pay your bill.

The doctor was angry and he said look here,
If you waste my time, then you must pay, I fear.
Miss Polly went as pale as a ghost, ghost, ghost,
And said I?ll put a cheque into the post, post, post.

Hope that helps
