Little Tommy Tucker

Sir Thomas Tucker, also known as Little Tommy Tucker, is the titular character in the Mother Goose Stories episode "Tommy Tucker".

Tommy Tucker was an orphan and street urchin, living on the streets of the big city. He once sang for his supper at the request of the mayor and his new wife, but they gave him his food they asked Tommy to cut a piece of bread without using a knife. Tommy questioned how one could cut without a knife, stating that it is like asking someone to marry without any wife. The two were delighted by Tommy's rhetoric and quick wit, and were so amused that they not only offer him all the food he could eat, but also offer to adopt him (and his feline fried).

Thomas Tucker grew up, following in his adopted-father's footsteps, to became the mayor himself.
