What is the Lizzie Borden chant?

Answer 1

"Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks, when she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41."

*Footnote:Neither Mr. nor Mrs. Borden received that many blows with the axe.

Answer 2

I am assuming you mean the "jump rope jingle" that surfaced after the hatchet murders of Andrew and Abbey Borden in 1892. Here it is:

Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother 40 wacks

When she saw what she had done

She gave her father 41.

Although it rhymes nicely it is incorrect. Abbey Borden suffered 19 blows with an object thought to be an axe or hatchet. Andrew Borden, 1 1/2 hours later, suffered 9-10 separate blows with a like weapon.
