    “There was an old woman rolled up in a blanket.”

    Share Share Post
    There was an old woman rolled up in a blanket
    Six times as high as the moon.
    Where she was going I couldn't but wonder
    For in her hand she carried a broom.
    Old woman! Old woman! Old woman says I,
    Where are you going up so high
    To sweep the cobwebs off the sky
    And I'll be with you tomorrow bye and bye.
