There Was an Old Woman and Nothing She Had
There Was an Old Woman and Nothing She Had
Nursery Rhyme
There was an old woman
And nothing she had;
And so this old woman
Was said to be mad.
She'd nothing to eat,
She'd nothing to wear,
She'd nothing to lose,
She'd nothing to fear,
She'd nothing to ask,
And nothing to give,
And when she did die,
She'd nothing to leave.
