4. Bald-Headed Lee
There once was a bald-head, his name it was Lee,
No one ever burned so much incense as he.
Now people burn incense to get them an heir,
But baldy burned incense to get him some hair.

When he found in three days all his hair had returned
He gave the god a coat and more incense he burned,
When he found in three days all his hair had dropped out
He upset the god and he kicked him about.

Then the god became angry and took up his sword
And made into dippers that bald-headed gourd.


5. Dragon Steed
As the sun came up, a ball of red,
My teacher rode on his horse ahead
While I followed close on my dragon steed,
He by the road and I by the mead


6. The Doctor’s Prescription
A purse, a purse, for better or worse,
Indeed would you know it, I’ve married a purse!

My wife’s little daughter once fell very ill
And we called for a doctor to give her a pill.
He wrote a prescription which now we will give her
In which he has ordered a mosquito’s liver,
And then in addition the heart of a flea
And half pound of fly wings to make her some tea.


7. E-Ni-Me-Ni-Mi-Ni-Mo (Round)
One, two, three and an old cow’s eye,
When a cow’s eye’s blind you’ll surely die,
A piece of skin and melon too,
If you have money I’ll sell to you,
But if you’re without I’ll put you…..OUT!


8. Ride a Cock Horse
Up you go, down you see,
Granny’s come to pour the tea.
The tea is sweet, the wine is too,
There are eighteen camels with clothes for you.
The clothes are heavy and the dragonfly
Has spurted water on your ankle tie.

Sister, sister, stop your fuss,
Tomorrow the cart will come for us!
What cart, you ask, the cart of course
With large red wheels and a big white horse.

And in it a beautiful girl I note
With a squirrel cap and an otter coat,
Her betel nut bag is a needlework charm
And the stem of her pipe is as long as your arm.
