"Mary had a little lamb" is een Engelstalig kinderliedje uit de negentiende eeuw van Amerikaanse oorsprong.

Wist je dat? De fonograaf (Engels: phonograph) is de voorloper van de grammofoon. De fonograaf werd gepatenteerd door Thomas Alva Edison op 19 februari 1878 en voorzag in de eerste mogelijkheid om geluid op te nemen en weer af te spelen. Het eerste fonografische document dat Edison zelf maakte, is een opname van het Engelse kinderliedje "Mary had a little lamb": "Mary had a little lamb / Its fleece was white as snow / And everywhere that Mary went / The lamb was sure to go"

Mary had a little lamb,
his fleece was white as snow,
Ev'rywhere that Mary went,
that lamb was sure to go.

And you could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

He followed her to school one day,
it was against the rules,
Made the children laugh and play to
see a lamb at school.

You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

Soon the teacher turned it out,
still it lingered near,
Waited patiently about till
Mary did appear.

You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

"But the lamb loved Mary so",
the eager children cry,
"And Mary loves the lamb, you know",
the teacher did reply.

And you could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Ev'ry body singing)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
