Just the accompaniment, no tune: you play or sing the melody.

Mary had a little lamb,
little lamb, little lamb,
Mary had a little lamb, its
fleece was white as snow.
Everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went, Mary went,
Everywhere that Mary went, the
lamb was sure to go.
He followed her to school one day,
That was against the rule;
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned him out,
But still he lingered near,
And waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear.
