Buckle My Shoe

I've seen a few variants of this rhyme (mostly changing in the last half), but here's the version from the vintage book that inspired this stamp:

One, two, buckle my shoe;
Three, four, shut the door;
Five, six, pick up sticks;
Seven, eight, lay them straight;
Nine, ten, a good fat hen;
Eleven, twelve, who will delve;
Thirteen, fourteen, maid's a-courting;
Fifteen, sixteen, maids a-kissing;
Seventeen, eighteen, maids a-waiting;
Nineteen, twenty, my stomach's empty.

Approx. 2-3/8" x 3"
