julie & martyn: tell it again tell it again tell it just the same, the very same people the very same story and call it the very same name

martyn: you know julie i love nursery rhymes, and i listen to them and sing them so often, i believe i know all the nursery rhymes in the world
julie: oh, why martyn that’s not possible, for that you’d have to learn all the languages in the world because all little children in everywhere love to sing songs just as we do, and they sing them in many different countries and many different languages
martyn: yes, i suppose your right julie but at least i know all of those that are written english, perhaps one day i shall learn some of the others
julie: let’s see how many we know now; i’ll start with one and then you sing one and perhaps in that way we can sing them all. of course, if we leave any out i hope our friends will remind us of them when the record is done. may i start with my favourite one?
martyn: please

martyn: jack and jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
jack fell down and broke his crown and jill came tumbling after

went to bed to mend his head with vinegar and brown paper
julie: p+ssy cat p+ssy cat where have you been?

martyn: well, i know three different rhymes that have the same rhythm and can be sung to the same music. maybe the girls and boys who are listening to this record would like to sing them with us
julie: you are very welcome to do that boys and girls we would like to have you. if you don’t sing at first you can play it over again until you do, we’ll wait for you

julie: little miss muppet sat on a tuppit eating some curds and way
there came a great spider and sat down beside her and frighted miss muppet away
julie & martyn: hay diddle diddle

the cow jumped over the moon
the little dog laughed and
the dish ran away with the spoon
