"Ding Dong Bell" is a popular English language nursery rhyme. It has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 12853.
The most common modern version is:

Ding, dong, bell,
Pussy's in the well.
Who put her in?
Little Johnny Flynn.
Who pulled her out?
Little Tommy Stout.
What a naughty boy was that,
To try to drown poor pussy cat,
Who never did him any harm,
But ate all of the mice in the farmer's barn

All the above is the most that I can find on this vintage, rare, piece of art.
