It was "LITTLE enough to ride for free, LITTLE enough to ride your knee," meaning that a child riding for free should not occupy a seat of his or her own (when someone paying a fare wanted to sit). Note that it was "LITTLE," not "YOUNG" -- I don't know what the rule was at the time the poster came out (whether it was height-based or age-based), but the free riding privilege changed to height-based about 20 years ago to avoid arguments.
