Complete Version Of Ye Three Blind Mice

Three Small Mice
Three Small Mice
Three Small Mice
  
Pined for some fun
Pined for some fun
Pined for some fun
  
They made up their minds to set out to roam;
Said they, "'Tis dull to remain at home,"
And all the luggage they took was a comb,
These three Small Mice
  
  
Three Bold Mice
Three Bold Mice
  
Came to an Inn
Came to an Inn
Came to an Inn
  
"Good evening, Host, can you give us a bed?"
But the Host he grinned and he shook his head;
  
  
So they all slept out in a field instead,
These three Bold Mice.
  
  
Three Cold Mice
Three Cold Mice
  
Woke up next morn
Woke up next morn
Woke up next morn
  
They each had a cold and a swollen face,
Through sleeping all night in an open space;
So they rose quite early and left the place,
These three Cold Mice.
  
  
Three Hungry Mice
Three Hungry Mice
  
Searched for some food
Searched for some food
Searched for some food
  
But all they found was a walnut shell
That lay by the side of a dried-up well;
Who had eaten the nut they could not tell,
These three Hungry Mice.
  
  
Three Starved Mice
Three Starved Mice
  
Came to a Farm
Came to a Farm
Came to a Farm
  
The Farmer was eating some bread and cheese;
So they all went down on their hands and knees,
And squeaked, "Pray, give us a morsel, please,"
These three Starved Mice.
  
  
Three Glad Mice
Three Glad Mice
  
Ate all they could
Ate all they could
Ate all they could
  
They felt so happy they danced with glee;
But the Farmer's Wife came in to see
What might this merry-making be
Of three Glad Mice.
  
  
Three Poor Mice
Three Poor Mice
  
Soon changed their tone
Soon changed their tone
Soon changed their tone
  
The Farmer's Wife said, "What are you at,
And why were you capering round like that?
Just wait a minute: I'll fetch the Cat"
Oh dear! Poor Mice.
  
  
Three Scared Mice
Three Scared Mice
  
Ran for their lives
Ran for their lives
Ran for their lives
  
They jumped out on to the window ledge;
The mention of "Cat" set their teeth on edge;
So they hid themselves in the bramble hedge,
These three Scared Mice.
  
  
Three Sad Mice
Three Sad Mice
  
What could they do?
What could they do?
What could they do?
  
The bramble hedge was most unkind:
It scratched their eyes and made them blind,
And soon each Mouse went out of his mind,
These three Sad Mice.
  
  
Three Blind Mice
Three Blind Mice
  
See how they run
See how they run
See how they run
  
They all ran after the Farmer's Wife,
Who cut off their tails with the carving knife.
Did you ever see such a sight in your life
As three Blind Mice?
  
  
  
Three Sick Mice
Three Sick Mice
  
Gave way to tears
Gave way to tears
Gave way to tears
  
They could not see and they had no end;
They sought a Chemist and found a Friend
He gave them some "Never too late to mend,"
These Three Sick Mice.
  
  
  
Three Wise Mice
Three Wise Mice
  
Rubbed rubbed away
Rubbed rubbed away
Rubbed rubbed away
  
And soon their tails began to grow,
And their eyes recovered their sight, you know;
They looked in the glass and it told them so.
These three Wise Mice.
  
  
  
Three Proud Mice
Three Proud Mice
  
Soon settled down
Soon settled down
Soon settled down
  
The name of their house I cannot tell,
But they've learnt a trade and are doing well.
If you call upon them, ring the bell
Three times twice.

And all the luggage they took was a comb,
These three Small Mice
