Rub a Dub Dub

Source: Lantern Tree

Rub a dub dub,
Three men in a tub;
And who do you think they be?
The butcher, the baker,
The candlestick-maker;
Turn ’em out, knaves all three!

Rub-a-dub-dub,
Three men in a tub,
And how do you think they got there?
They all jumped out of a rotten potato,
‘Twas enough to make a man stare.

This last verse about the rotten potato is completely new to me.

🙂 Count on Sesame Street to do a good Nursery Rhyme video. Here are William Wegman’s Weimaraners with Rub a Dub Dub.
