The Pieman's Naughty Daughter
Simple Simon whistled, when he pricked his finger on a thistle,
And the pieman had whistled too.
Because the penny that Simon gave to the pieman,
Was a penny all shiny and new
The pieman threw the penny into the pail of water.
In hopes that he'd find himself a buck
But the pieman's naughty daughter, dipped her hand in the water
Stole the penny and ran away, yelling...Good Luck!
