PEG by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "THERE WAS AN OLD WOMAN, HER NAME WAS PEG"
Last Line: "HER LEG WAS DROWNED FIRST, AND HER HEAD FOLLOWED AFTER"
THERE was an old woman, her name was Peg;
Her head was of wood and she wore a cork leg.
The neighbours all pitched her into the water,
Her leg was drowned first, and her head followed after.
