When I Was a Little Boy My Mammy Kept Me In
When I Was a Little Boy My Mammy Kept Me In
Nursery Rhyme
When I was a little boy my mammy kept me in,
But now I am a great boy I'm fit to serve the
king;
I can handle a musket, and I can smoke a pipe,
And I can kiss a pretty girl at twelve o'clock at
night.
