   Paddy from Ireland and Paddy from Cork, a hole in his pants as big as New York.

   Yankee Doodle had a cat and he was very fond of jelly.
   Every time he caught a rat he caught him by the belly.

   Riddle Riddle auntie o.
   My father gave me a seed to sow.
   When the seed began to grow
   It was like a garden full of snow.
   When the snow began to melt
   Like a ship without a belt
   When the ship began to sail
   Like a bird without a tail
   When the bird began to fly
   Like a needle in the sky.
