THE LITTLE OLD MILL
Don Pelosi, Lewis Ilda & Leo Towers
Recorded by Gracie Fields & Joe Loss
Verse:
I recall when I was small, a cosy nursery
With pretty pictures on the wall, as Grand-ma sang to me...
Chorus:
A little Dutch boy and a little Dutch girl sat dreaming on a hill,
Tick tock, tick tock went the funny old clock
And the little old mill went round and round and round went the little old mill.
Said the little Dutch boy to the little Dutch girl when will you say I will,
Tick tock, tick tock went the funny old clock
And the little old mill went round and round and round went the little old mill.
Down in the valley Grand-ma used to tell,
There was a chalet with a quaint old wishing well,
So the little Dutch boy built the little Dutch girl, a chalet on the hill,
Tick tock, tick tock goes the funny old clock
And the little old mill goes round and round
and round goes the little old mill.
