Pub a dub dub

Recommended Posts

The oldest known printed version from the 14th century goes:

Hey! Rub-a-dub-dub! Ho! Rub-a-dub-dub! Three maids in a tub,
And who do you think were there?
The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker,
And all of them gone to the fair!
This is interpreted as describing otherwise respectable tradesmen attending a peep-show.[
