TAMMY TYRIE by ANONYMOUS

First Line: WEE TAMMY TYRIE / HE JUMPED IN THE FIRIE
Last Line: "SHOUTING, MAMMIE! MAMMIE! MAMMIE!"
WEE Tammy Tyrie,
He jumped in the firie;
The fire wis ower hot,
He jumped in the pot;
The pot wis ower mettle,
He jumped in the kettle;
The kettle wis ower wee,
He jumped in the sea;
The sea wis ower big,
He jumped on a pig;
The pig gae a roar,
He jumped on a boar;
The boar gae a bite,
And he ran to his Mammie,
Shouting, Mammie! Mammie! Mammie!
