Little Bo Peep she has lost her sheep	A
And will not know where to find them	B
They are over the height and out of sight	C
Trailing their tails behind them	B
	-
Little Bo Peep woke out of her sleep	A
Jump'd up and set out to find them	B
The silly things they've got no wings	D
And they've left their trails behind them	B
	-
They've taken their tails but they've left their trails	E
And so I shall follow and find them	B
For wherever a tail had dragged a trail	F
The grass lay bent behind them	B
	-
She washed in the brook and caught up her crook	G
And after her sheep did run	H
Along the trail that went up the dale	F
Across the grass in the sun	H
	-
She ran with a will and she came to a hill	I
That went up steep like a spire	J
On its very top the sun seemed to stop	K
And burned like a flame of fire	L
	-
But now she went slow for the hill did go	M
Up steeper as she went higher	L
When she reached its crown the sun was down	N
Leaving a trail of fire	L
	-
And her sheep were gone and hope she had none	H
For now was no trail behind them	B
Yes there they were long tailed and fair	O
But to see was not to find them	B
	-
Golden in hue and rosy and blue	P
And white as blossom of pears	Q
Her sheep they did run in the trail of the sun	H
As she had been running in theirs	Q
	-
After the sun like clouds they did run	H
But she knew they were her sheep	A
She sat down to cry and look up at the sky	R
But she cried herself to sleep	A
	-
And as she slept the dew down wept	S
And the wind did blow from the sky	R
And doings strange brought a lovely change	T
She woke with a different cry	R
	-
Nibble nibble crop without a stop	K
A hundred little lambs	U
Did pluck and eat the grass so sweet	V
That grew in the trail of their dams	U
	-
She gave one look she caught up her crook	G
Wiped away the sleep that did blind her	L
And nibble nibble crop without a stop	K
The lambs came nibbling behind her	L
	-
Home home she came both tired and lame	W
With three times as large a stock	X
In a month or more they'll be sheep as before	Y
A lovely long wooled flock	X
	-
But what will she say if one fine day	Z
When they've got their bushiest tails	E
Their grown up game should be just the same	W
And again she must follow mere trails	E
	-
Never weep Bo Peep though you lose your sheep	A
Tears will turn rainbow laughter	L
In the trail of the sun if the mothers did run	H
The lambs are sure to run after	L
	-
But a day is coming when little feet drumming	A2
Will wake you up to find them	B
All the old sheep how your heart will leap	A
With their big little lambs behind them	B
