The Real Mother Goose by  Blanche Fisher Wright

Taffy

Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a thief,

Taffy came to my house and stole a piece of beef;

I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was not home;

Taffy came to my house and stole a marrow-bone.


I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was not in;

Taffy came to my house and stole a silver pin;

I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was in bed,

I took up the marrow-bone and flung it at his head.
