Pease porridge hot, Pease porridge cold.Pease porridge in thepot. Nine days old.Some like it hot, Some like it cold,Some like it in thepot. Nine days old. … MOTHER-PLAY RHYMES 15 RocK-A-BYE, baby, thy cradle is green ;Father s a nobleman, mother s a Queen ;And Bettys a lady, and wears a gold ring;And Johnny s a drummer, and drums forthe King. r
