Old nursery rhyme in new form (a parody)--for today's self assertive children
BA, BA, BLACK SHEEP


Ba, ba, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
No sir, no sir,
I am not a fool.

My wool’s only
For my baby sheep
In it she will
Comfortably sleep.



* Written in abcb 4-5-4-5 format

* Based upon the popular nursery rhyme with similar opening lines

"SCIENCE, MEDICAL, LAW, HUMOR, CHILDREN" Open in new Window.
