As I went over the water
This old nursery rhyme is called “As I went over the water” — enjoy your reading!
“As I went over the water,
The water went over me.
I saw two little blackbirds sitting on a tree:
The one called me a rascal,
The other called me a thief;
I took up my little black stick,
And knocked out all their teeth.”
