[edit] Sources

The current first sentence: "Sing a Song of Sixpence is a well known English rhyme, the origins of which are uncertain; two main competing theories circulating on the Internet are" etc. Do we have reputable sources for this other than online rumor-mongering? And if we do, why is this the lead? I'm not sure what exactly should be done here, but surely it needs work in citing sources. I'll slap on a tag. -Phoenixrod 08:35, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

I learned it with the additional "Along came a bluebird / And brought it back again" as the last two lines. Is this just me, or do these lines have merit? 66.82.9.76 06:12, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
