Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mary had a little lamb
His fleece was white as snow
Everywhere that Mary went
That lamb was sure to go
And you could hear them singin'
La-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
[Verse 2]
He followed her to school one day
It was against the rules
Made the children laugh and play
To a see a lamb at school
And you could hear them singin'
La-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, everybody singin'
La-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
[Verse 3]
And so the teacher turned it out
But still it lingered near
Waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear
And you could hear them singin'
La-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, everybody singin'
La-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
[Verse 4]
When does the lamb love Mary so
The eager children cry
But Mary loves the lamb, you know
The teacher did reply
And you could hear them singin'
La-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, everybody singin'
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
[Verse 5]
La-la, la-la, la-la, ooh
