Looking for a song title and lyrics!

Hi everyone, my friends sing a song when they've had a few and bsaically its well know nursery rhymes changed around - for example one of the verses is

Georgie Porgie puddin and pie, kissed the girls and made them cry, when they boys came out to play, he kissed them too.. he's funny that way!!

Just wondering does anyone else know this song, what its called or some more lyrics? A good few of them know it and i'd love to learn it myself caus its a great song for a sing-a-long!

Thanks in advance
Bríd

Hi Brid,

I found this. Don't know if it will help you though.

Georgie Porgie puddin' and pie
kissed the girls and made them cry
when the boys came out to play
he kissed them, too, he was funny that way

Jack and Jill went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water
Jill came down with half a crown
and it wasn't for carrying water

Hey diddle diddle the cat took a piddle
all over the kitchen floor
the little dog laughed to see such sport
so the cat did a little bit more

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack jumped over a candle stick
Silly boy, he should have jumped higher
Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire

Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet
Her drawers all tattered and torn
It wasn't the spider that sat down beside her
But Little Boy Blue with his bugle
