I Had a Little Nut Tree

I had a little nut tree, nothing would it bear
Save a silver nutmeg and a golden pear
The king of Spain, his daughter, came to visit me
And was all because of my little nut tree

Her dress was all of crimson, cold black was her hair
She asked me for my nutmeg and my golden pear
I said, "So fair a princess I never yet did see"
So I gave her all the fruit of my little nut tree

I danced over mountains skipped over sea
All the birds in the air they could not catch me
