It's a Mother Goose nursery rhyme:
: To market, to market, to buy a fat pig, : Home again, home again, jiggety-jig. : To market, to market, to buy a fat hog, : Home again, home again, jiggety-jog. : To market, to market, to buy a plum bun, : Home again, home again, market is done.
Home again, home again is part of a nursery rhyme. The nursery rhymes we know today come from European folk lore, for the most part, British (English speaking) folk lore. Their origins had a number of purposes before the average household had books or were literate. Some had hidden political messages from times that to actually speak ill of or make fun of the ruling class could have dire consequences; some commemorated historical events; some were devised to teach children a lesson or moral; some were used for their sing song rhythms to soothe a baby or interact with a toddler to make them smile and laugh. The full text of this one is: To market, to market to buy a fat pig. Home again, home again, jiggity jig. To market, to market to buy a fat hog. Home again, home again jiggity jog.
