The ballad of Little Red Riding Hood Words and music by Mario Papa From “Jump Rope” by Mario Papa & Janet Shelly, Istituto Geografico De Agostini, Novara, 2000
Little Red Riding Hood
Please, don’t stop in the woods
Don’t be late and be good.
Now go to granny’s house
She’s not well in her bed
But the hungry wolf
Can eat her and you, too.
And the wolf is so bad
He eats granny and the girl
But the hunter comes
And they’re safe in the end.
So the story goes
Little Red Riding Hood.
