Recorder Notes: D, E, F#, A

Lyrics

(Folk tune, Lyrics by Sarah Josepha Hale, 1830)

Mary had a little lamb,
Little lamb, little lamb,
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow

And everywhere that Mary went
Mary went, Mary went
Everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go

He followed her to school one day
School one day, school one day
He followed her to school one day
Which was against the rule

It made the children laugh and play
Laugh and play, laugh and play
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school

“Why does the lamb love Mary so?
Mary so, Mary so?
Why does the lamb love Mary so?”
The eager children cry.

“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,
Lamb, you know, lamb, you know,
Mary loves the lamb, you know,”
The teacher did reply.
