these are the words I remember... any help appreciated

Patience awhile
My little child
please don't you you cry

for up in a tree
A robin you'll see
Picking cherries one by one

Robins have no cherry pie
Quick they eat
And off they fly

Patience awhile
my little child
Please don't you cry.

Is this what you are looking for?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CHERRIES ARE RIPE

CHERRIES are ripe ! cherries are ripe !
0, give the baby one ;
Cherries are ripe ! cherries are ripe !
And baby must have none.

Cherries are too sour to use ;
Babies are too young to choose ;
By-and-by, made in a pie,
No one will then refuse.

Up in a tree a robin I see,
Eating one by one ;
Striking his bill, getting his fill,
As down his throat they run.
Robins want no cherry pie ;

Quick they eat, and off they fly ;
My little child, patient and mild,
Surely will not cry
