TO MARKET

A boy and a girl dash down a dirt road on the way home from town. He holds a small whip in one hand and a string in the other. The string is tied to the right hind leg of the pig (or hog, depending where in the rhyme we are), which is dashing ahead of the children. The girl holds a basket on one arm.

To market, to market, to buy a fat pig.
Home again, home again, jiggety jig.
To market, to market, to buy a fat hog,
Home again, home again, jiggety jog.
To market, to market, to buy a plum bun,
Home again, home again, market is done.
