Thread Name: There Was an Old Woman and She Had a Little Pig
Subject: RE: There Was an Old Woman and She Had a Little Pig
The version my grandfather used to sing to me included the following verse:

"One day that little pig got out,
and it fell down and broke its snout".

The tune he sang is quite different from the Ritchie version, and the verse at the end ("There they lay upon the shelf
If you want anymore you can sing it yourself,") had a different tune from the rest.
