Some little boys and little girls

They said they'd give a show

The people came from far and wide

They always do you know

The king of Grangers

O.P. Taylor, came from Providence

The wireless bug from Campbell Park

And one from Roxberree

Cho) Oh they came to see Jack Climbing up the bean stalk

And the giant and the fairy queen so sweet

Herbert Boardman played the music

Ella Murdock wrote the words

Grandma Murdock she designed the giddy costumes

II

The chorus sang their very best

To please the audience

And Jack he loved his Mary so

He climbed the bean-stalk high,

It's really only a ladder you see

And not to the clouds at all

The giant he ain't ten feet tall

But he's only wearing stilts

Cho) And Miss Muffets dish is really very empty

Mother Hubbards cupboard too is much the same

But in spite of all these things

We shall always always sing -

Sing the praises of Miss Mary quite contrary

III

The robber chief and fairy queen

Both love each other so

The giant is Miss Muffets aunt

Outside the show you know

And old King Cole is a motorman

On a one man car they say

Mary's dead in love with Sinbad

That's outside the show

Cho) Now our acting's not our only occupation

But so you'd think to see our playing on the stage

But we've really tried quite hard

We've rehearsed the blooming play

In the hope of giving you an entertainment
