For more on children's rhymes and songs, you cannot do much better than "Greasy Grimy Gopher Guts: The Subversive Folklore of Childhood" by Josepha Sherman and T. K. F. Weisskopf, both sci-fi people with ouside interests. I'm pretty sure Jo was researching this when we all were on the GEnie BBS, a lot of familiar names from that grouping of folks in the acknowledgements.
