I saw a little Jack playing in a corner
He was picking people out to play
Well he was playing all alone
But by the look up in his eyes
He was making little friends to play
Then I saw a little Robin Hood in the woods
Running around playing tag all alone
She was running with a basket of food in her hands
On her way to her grandmama's home
If grandmama babysits little Jack
And the Robin is on her way
And if the big bad wolf don't get involved
Then Jack and Robin might get to play
Well, now bread crumbs dripping from the floor
Why you weeping and you're thinking things you ought to say
With your mind's full of wishing
When your body's full of weeping
'Cause a bunch of 'em are around your way
Then you act like you should
Little Red Robin Hood
'Cause you don't want to be all alone
But you get there late and Jack the Man is gone
Grandmama made the shotgun call
So Jack can't play with Baby Jill
And the Wolf didn't get involved
So the rhyme to the rhythm is to never fiddle
While the Humpty Dumpty sits up on your wall
Well, Jack's on the hill with Baby Jill
And the Robin cries all alone
So grandmama led by Jungle Jim
Put Jack back up on that wall
So Jack can't play with Baby Jill
And the Wolf didn't get involved
So the rhyme to the rhythm is to never fiddle
While the Humpty Dumpty sits up on your wall
Come on now
Now Jack's on the hill with Baby Jill
And the Wolf didn't get involved
So the rhyme to the rhythm is to never fiddle
While the Humpty Dumpty sits up on your wall
Hey
