See saw, sacradown, sacradown,Which is the way to Boston town ?One foot up, the other foot down,That is the way to Boston town. Tom Browns two little Indian boys, One ran away, The other would nt stay,Tom Browns two little Indian boys. Hop away, skip away, my baby wants to play.My baby wants to… … Bow, wow, wow, whose dog are thou ?Little Tom Tinkers dog, bow, wow, wow. Bobby Shaftoes gone to sea,Silver buckles on Ms knee;Hell come back and marry me,Pretty Bobby Shaftoe. Bobby Shaf toes fat and fair,Combing down his yellow hair,Hes my love forevermore, Pretty Bobby Shaftoe. 64
