   Do come for a walk, Through the village with me. I’ll show you all sorts of things, You’ll like to see. II Now here is the smithy, We’ll watch the smith shoe. This very big cart horse, See what he can do. III In this shop we’ll buy candy, And chocolates too. We’ll also buy apples, That’s what we shall do. IV Now here comes some cows, Don’t jump on the wall. The cows are quite safe, They’ll not hurt you at all. V Now we’ll visit a house, Where a parrot is seen. The parrot is beautiful, All red and green.
