Save Mother Goose

Poor Mother Goose

Was on a caboose

When the caboose got loose.

"Help!" cried Mother Goose.

Jack Sprat was in tears.

"Mother Goose is doomed I fear."

Little Jack Horner bellowed,

"We must save Mother Goose."

Miss Muffet got off her tuffet

And screamed, "We'll save you."

Old King Cole told his fiddlers three,

"Stop the caboose for me."

The fiddlers three picked up

Humpty Dumpty and rolled him

Onto the tracks of the oncoming caboose.

The caboose struck Humpty Dumpty

And it came to a complete stop.

"Hooray!" shouted Little Jack Horner.

"Mother Goose is saved."

A smiling Mother Goose said,

"Thank you my children one and all.

Now let's get ready to party at my Mother Goose Ball."
