The Lonely Wolf


There once were three little piggies,

They were tired of moving from place to place,

So they settled down and built houses,

One made a house of straw,

Another made a house of sticks,

And the last made a house of bricks

A lonely wolf with a bad cough came across the houses,

Lonely was he,

So he walked up and knocked on the first’s door,

In fear the little pig screamed,

In fear the wolf coughed blowing the straw house away,

The sad wolf walked up to the second,

He knocked once more,

The second little piggy screamed in terror,

The lonely wolf coughed quite hard blowing the house of sticks away,

Sad once more the wolf walked up to the third,

Knocked did he,

The third little piggy screamed in fright,

Coughed once more did the lonely little wolf,

The last house stood strong,

The wolf went away lonely as before,
