Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard
To fetch her poor dog a bone
But when she got there the cupboard was bare
So she threw it out the window

(Chorus:)
The window, the window, the second-story window
But when she got there, the cupboard was bare 
(Note: always the 3rd line of the previous verse)
So she threw it out the window

Old King Cole was a merry old soul
And a merry old soul was he
He called for his pipe and he called for his bowl
And threw them out the window

(Chorus)

Oh where, oh where has my little dog gone?
Oh where, oh where can he be?
With his ears cut short and his tail cut long
I'll throw him out...

(Chorus)

Yankee Doodle went to town
A-riding on a pony
He stuck a feather in his cap
And threw it out...

(Chorus)

A-tisket, a-tasket
A green and yellow basket
I wrote a letter to my love
And threw it out the window...

(Chorus)

(Note: any nursery rhyme can be added in to this song)
