A frog went a courtin' and he did ride
Hey, ho little lady-o
Sword and pistol by his side
With a ring ting ting and a dandy-o
He rode up to Hiss Mousie's door
Hey, ho little lady-o
Where he'd often been before
With a rin ting ting and a dandy-o
He said "MIss Mouse, are you within?"...
"Yes, kind isre, I sit and spin" ...
He took MIss Mouse upon his knee...
Said "miss Mouse will you marry me?"...
Without my Uncle Rat's consent...
I wouldn't marry the President...
Uncle Rat, he laughed and shook his fat sides...
To think his niece would be a bride...
"Oh, where will the wedding supper be?"
"Way down yonder in the hollow tree."... |
The first to come was the little white moth...
She spread out the tablecloth...
The next to come was the bumblebee...
Played the fiddle upon his knee...
The next to come was a little flea...
Dancing a jig with the bumblebee...
The next to come was Missus Cow...
Tried to dance but didn't know how...
Now Mister Frog was dressed in green...
Sweet Miss Mouse looked like a queen...
In slowly walked the Parson Rook...
Under his arm he carried a book...
They all gathered round the lucky pair...
Singing, dancing everywhere...
Then Frog and Mouse went off to France...
That's the end of my romance...
