NANCY COCK by ANONYMOUS

First Line: UP HILL AND DOWN HILL / BUTTER IS MADE IN EVERY DALE
Last Line: GROWS A YOUNG MAN

UP hill and down dale,
Butter is made in every vale,
And if that Nancy Cock
Is a good girl,
She shall have a spouse
And make butter anon,
Before her old grandmother
Grows a young man.
