The Neighborhood Mother Goose

Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe.
Get it done by half past two.
Stitch it up, and stitch it down,
Make the finest shoes in town.
When I was a little boy, I washed my mother's dishes.
I put my finger in my ear and pulled out little fishes.
My mother called me good boy, and bid me pull out more.
I put my finger in my ear and pulled out fourscore.
