Download Sing a Song of Sixpence
“Sing a Song of Sixpence” is a well-known English nursery rhyme, perhaps originating in the 18th century.
The rhyme’s origins are uncertain. References have been inferred in Shakespeare‘s Twelfth Night (c. 1602), (Act II, Scene iii), where Sir Toby Belch tells a clown: “Come on; there is sixpence for you: let’s have a song” and in Beaumont and Fletcher‘s Bonduca (1614), which contains the line “Whoa, here’s a stir now! Sing a song o’ sixpence!
