Little Nut Tree Lyrics
March 5, 2007 — Nutty MummyOk ok.. I give in..
Due to popular demand and some rather odd emails.. ;) I have decided to add The Little Nut Tree Lyrics to my blog..
I have been misleading the nursery rhyme reading public
So here we are…
I had a little nut tree, Nothing would it bear, But a silver nutmeg, And a golden pear. The King of Spain’s daughter Came to visit me, And all for the sake Of my little nut tree. I skipped over water, I danced over sea, And all the birds in the air, Couldn’t catch me.

Well that’s actually the Mother Goose Version.
The Older, Historical Version is longer.
Here are two sites to read up about it and listen to the full version of the song.
