[Verse 1]
Mary had a little lamb
His fleece was white as snow
Everywhere that Mary went
That lamb was sure to go
[Chorus 1]
And you could hear them singing:
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
See a lamb at school
[Chorus 2]
You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Soon the teacher turned it out
Still it lingered near
Waited patiently about till
Mary did appear
[Chorus 2]
[Verse 4]
"But the lamb loved Mary so"
The eager children cry
"And Mary loves the lamb, you know"
The teacher did reply
[Chorus 1]
