TIL: Nursery Rhymes Mystery (Baa-Baa Black Sheep)

Baa-baa Black Sheep - This sweet nursery rhyme is usually heard with the line "and one for the little boy who lives down the lane," but apparently the line used to go "and none for the little boy who cries down the lane." This rhyme is actually about how taxes were split in the 13th century between the crown, the farmers, and the church. The shepherd boy was not given anything.
