Mother Goose, Rhymes & Songs

I had a little nut tree


I had a little nut tree, nothing would it bear

But a silver nutmeg and a golden pear.
The King of Spain's daughter came to visit me,
And all for the sake of my little nut tree.
I skipped over water, I danced over sea,
And all the birds in the air couldn't catch me.
