Dans un recueil de comptines édité en Grande Bretagne j'ai trouvé ces différences avec votre texte:
-"knick knack," au lieu de nick nack
-"paddy wack" au lieu de "paddy whack"
-"on my thumb "au lieu de "on my drum"
-" three .....on my knee" au lieu de "three .....on my tree"
-" seven .....up in heaven "au lieu de "on my oven"
-"ten......once again" au lieu de "ten ....on my hen"
mais bien sûr les comptines ont toujours des variantes.Cordialement
