An' you must watch the speckled hen For fear she'll go astray, An' you must wind the bobbin of yarn That I spun yesterday. The old woman went, she picked up the shares To go an' follow the plow, The old man he picked up the pail To milk the teeny cow. And he went to feed the little pigs That lay within the sty, The old sow run up against his legs An’ knocked him ten foot high. When he went to watch the speckled hen For fear she'd go astray, He forgot to wind the bobbin of yarn That his wife spun yesterday.
