Lady Bo Peep lost her sheep,
but managed to go out and find her."

"Oh me, oh my, I guess that I,
must find a way to bind her."

"Ten times she roamed away from home,
lucky for me I found her."

"I mustn't tie her...but get weaved wire,
and build a fence around her."

"I'll build a fence four feet high,
that she can't climb over, if she should try."

When Bo Peep came out the next day,
her sheep had escaped and roamed away.

"Eleven times she roamed away from home,
lucky for me I found her.
I'll raise my fence to eight feet high,
that she can't climb over, if she should try."

When Bo Peep came out the next day,
her sheep had escaped and roamed away.

"Twelve times she roamed away from home,
lucky for me I found her.
I'll raise my fence sixteen feet high,
that she can't climb over if she try."

When Bo peep came out the next day,
her sheep had escaped and roamed away.

"I'll raise a fence as high as the sky,
that she can't climb over if she try."

When Bo Peep came out the next day,
her sheep had escaped and roamed away.

Her grand Ma who lived next door,
asked, "What for are you searching everyday?"

"I've lost my sheep, said teary-eyed Bo Peep,
something that I really hate."

Grand Ma smiled and said my dear child,
"Try closing the gate."
