Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe - Mother Goose Club Nursery Rhymes

[dblair6]

I love this video

[nickoelke1]

Per Wikipedia:

The most common version of the rhyme is:

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.

She had so many children, she didn't know what to do;

She gave them some broth without any bread;

Then whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.

The earliest printed version in Joseph Ritson's Gammer Gurton's Garland in 1794 has the coarser last line:

She whipp'd all their bums, and sent them to bed.

There were many other variations printed in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

I think old rhymes and fairytales have deeper meaning than it appears on the surface. Therefore, however it sounds cruel, I think it shouldn't be altered for shallow sentimental reasons.
