    Sneeze on Monday, sneeze for danger;
    Sneeze on Tuesday, kiss a stranger;
    Sneeze on Wednesday, get a letter;
    Sneeze on Thursday, something better;
    Sneeze on Friday, sneeze for sorrow;
    Sneeze on Saturday, see your sweetheart tomorrow.
    Little Tommy Tucker, sing for your supper,
    What shall he sing for?
    White bread and butter.
    How shall he cut it without any knife?
