Tender shepherd

Tender shepherd

Let me help you hold your sheep

One in the meadow

Two in the garden

Three in the nursery

Fast asleep...



Will you treat me with respect?

(Yes, sir!)

Let me have a little peace and quiet?



(We will always try to be so quiet

Quieter than mice!)



Oh wouldn't that be nice!



We will grow up

(They will grow up)

We will mind the P's and Q's

(They will mind the P's and Q's)

We will never be a bother

(They will never be a bother

And we'll always shine your shoes)

Oh do think of all those shoes!

???

We trying to grow up

Trying to grow up,

Trying to grow up

Like me,

Like I,

Like me.
