There Was A Young Man Called Moat
There was a young man called Moat

Whether to vote red or blue
While riding on a goat!

His sorrows to drown
Then voted for a goat!

There Was A Young Man Called Morris

There Was A Young Man Called Mo

Who stood upon my toe.
I gave him a glare
And said “you aint being fair!”,
So he trod on my other toe!

There Was A Young Lady Called Meg

They found nothing profound
As Meg was pulling their leg …!
There Was A Young Lady Called Hocking

Who told me a limerick risqué.

There Was A Young Lady Called Lorraine

Who’s character lacked any stain.
An old rake named Paul

But I can not conquer Lorraine!”.

Who’s character lacked any stain.
While on her wedding bed
She most properly said
“My virtue I shall retain!”.
