There was a little old woman.

There was a little old man.

The little old woman had a cat.

The little old man had a pig.

The little old woman wanted a boy.

The little old man wanted a boy.

The little old woman said,

"I will make a gingerbread boy."

So she made a gingerbread boy.

The gingerbread boy ran away.

He ran away from the little old woman,

He ran away from the little old man,

He ran, and he ran, and he ran.

The gingerbread boy met a cat.

He said, "I am a gingerbread boy, I am, I am, I am.

I ran away from the little old woman, I ran away from the little old man, I can run away from you, I can, I can, I can."

And he ran, and he ran, and he ran.

The gingerbread boy met a pig.

He said, "I am a gingerbread boy, I am, I am, I am.

I ran away from the little old woman, I ran away from the little old man, I ran away from the cat, I can run away from you, I can, I can, I can."

And he ran, and he ran, and he ran.
