Once Upon a Time and Other Child-Verses

The Three Margery Daws

See-saw, see-saw, up and down we gay-

ly go!

See-saw, see-saw, such a lovely teeter, O!

See-saw, see-saw,

grass across a daisy-stalk—

Up and down the robins teetered with their silvery talk.

See-saw, see-saw! robins, they know how to play

See-saw, see-saw, as well as children any day;

See-saw, see-saw! lads and lassies, don’t you know,

Grass across a daisy-stalk makes a lovely teeter, O!
