The Nut-Tree

The Nut-Tree

I had a little nut-tree,Nothing would it bearBut a silver nutmegAnd a golden pear;The King of Spain’s daughterShe came to see me,And all because of my little nut-tree.I skipped over water,I danced over sea,And all the birds in the air couldn’t catch me.

I had a little nut-tree,

Nothing would it bear

But a silver nutmeg

And a golden pear;

The King of Spain’s daughter

She came to see me,

And all because of my little nut-tree.

I skipped over water,

I danced over sea,

And all the birds in the air couldn’t catch me.
