Little Betty Winkle, She Had a Pig

Little Betty Winkle, She Had a Pig - Mama Lisa's House of English Nursery Rhymes, Intro Image


Little Betty Winkle, she had a pig,
It was a little pig, and not very big;
When he was alive he lived in clover,
But now he's dead, and that's all over.

Johnny Winkle, he
Sat down and cried,
Betty Winkle she
Laid down and died;
So there was an end
Of one, two, and three,
Johnny Winkle, He,
Betty Winkle, She,
And Piggy Wiggie.
