Hush Little Peasants
by Kristy W., Beth R., Carla A., and Scottie D.
To the tune of "Hush, Little Baby"
ush little peasants,
Don't say a word,
The knight is gonna come,
And kill you with his sword,
And if he doesn't get you dead,
We're gonna come tomorrow and
Chop off all your heads.
History of Hush Little Peasants
The type of our nursery rhyme is a lullaby. (to the tune of "Hush,
Little Baby"). When two manors were at war, the knights from one manor
would come and kill, or try to kill, everyone in the peasant village.
