Oranges and Lemons Songtext

von The Rainbow Collections

Oranges and lemons
Say the bells of St Clement's

You owe me five farthings
Say the bells of St Martin's

When will you pay me?
Say the bells of Old Bailey

When I grow rich
Say the bells of Shoreditch

When will that be?
Say the Stepney

I do not know
Say the great bells of Bow

Here comes a candle
To light you to bed

Here comes a candle
To light you to bed

Pancakes and Fritters
Say the bells of St Peter's

Two sticks and an apple
Say the bells of White Chapel

Old father Boldgate
Say snow bells of Folgate

Pokers and tounges
Say the bells of St John's

Kettles and pans
Say the bells of St Ann's

Brick bats and tiles
Say the bells of St Giles'

Here comes a candle
To light you to bed

Here comes a candle
To light you to bed
