A little girl walked in the wood
Tra-la-la-la-la
She had no longer any food
Tra-la-la-la-la
A lttle girl, a kind little girl
went walking in the wood one day
She met an old wise woman there
Tra-la-la-la-la
Who gave her cooking pot to her
Tra-la-la-la-la
The little girl, the kind little girl
listened to what the old woman did say
When you are hungry then you say
Cook! Little Pot, cook!
When you've had enough you say
Stop! Little Pot, stop!
The little girl, the kind little girl
took the cooking pot home to her mother
Then they had enough to eat
Tra-la-la-la-la
And were not hungry any more
Tra-la-la-la-la
The little girl, the kind little girl
left her mother alone one day
The mother was hungry and did say
Cook! Little Pot, cook!
And then she knew not what to say
Tra-la-la-la-la
The porridge bubbled over the side of the pot!
The porridge ran all over town
Tra-la-la-la-la
Until the little girl came home
Tra-la-la-la-la
The little girl, the kind little girl
Knew just what to say, she said
Stop! Little Pot, stop!
And the porridge stopped.
But from that day on
Whenever you visited that town
You had to eat your way in.
