There Was a Princess Long Ago
There was a princess long ago, Long ago, long ago. There was a princess long ago. Long, long ago.
Her favourite toy was a golden ball, A golden ball, a golden ball. Her favourite toy was a golden ball, Long, long ago.
She liked to bounce it up and down... One day she dropped it in the pond... She was sad and began to cry...
A frog came jumping across the pond... He swam down and got the ball... The princess gave him a thank you kiss... Then he turned into a handsome prince... They had a party to celebrate..
