Diddley-Diddley-Dumpty

DIDDLEY-DIDDLEY-DUMPTY,
The cat ran up the plum-tree,
  Half a crown
  To fetch her down,
Diddley-diddley-dumpty.

Sammy Soapsuds

When little Sammy Soapsuds
  Went out to take a ride,
In looking over London Bridge,
  He fell into the tide.

His parents never having taught
  Their loving Sam to swim,
The tide soon got the mastery,
  And made an end of him.
