    The trade. There are no shoemakers now in the district as people think that "shop shoes"are cheaper.
    Heels are worn on my boots the tops are turned to the sky.
    So instead of buying boots,
    I'll buy a pair of clogs
    so that nobody will hear me
    when I'm going through bogs.
    There was an old woman who
    lived in a shoe
    She had so many children she didn't know what to do
    She gave them some bread and she gave them some wrath
    And she whipped them unsoundly and put them to bed,
