Need title and lyrics to song or poem about two lads on horseback, a horse falls, the other rider pulls his friend up behind him saying something about 2 can ride as fast as one. Ends with "I remember when we were little boys." Thanks for the help.

Here's another one:

TEN LITTLE TOES (Two Little Boys)
Barrie Roberts

Two little boys had two little toys.
Each had a crosscut saw.
Gaily they played, sawing away,
And they ripped and they tore.
Then poor little Jack had a fearful mishap
As he hacked off his left-hand leg.
He hobbled about, screaming and shouting.
Till his young playmate said:

"Did you think I would leave you hobbling?"
And he hacked off his right leg, too.
"Climb up here, Jack. A bit of cobbling,
And you'll be just as good as new.
When we grow up, we'll both be lumberjacks,
And we'll cut down the trees in rows,
And do you think that you'll remember
When you had ten little toes?"

Long years passed. Lumberjacks at last
Both of the boys became,
Sawing away until the fateful day
When the forest was all aflame.
Joe got caught, struggled and fought,
But he could not get away.
He'd resigned himself to a fiery death
When he heard Jack say:

"Did you think I would leave you frying?"
And he hacked off Joe's legs, too.
"Climb up here, Joe, and let's be flying,
For my tin feet will see us through.
Can't you see Joe, I'm all a-trembling?
Do you think it's the fire's glows?
Oh, no, Joe, it's I'm remembering
When I had ten little toes."
