49—THE TAILOR AND THE MOUSE.
1 There was a tailor had a mouse,
Hi diddle unkum feedle ! They lived together in one house,
Hi diddle unkum feedle ! Hi diddle unkum tarum tantum
Through the town of Ramsay, Hi diddle unkum over the lea
Hi diddle unkum feedle !
2 The tailor thought the mouse was ill;
Hi diddle unkum feedle ! He gave him part of a blue pill. Hi diddle unkum feedle !
3 The tailor thought his mouse would die
He baked him in an apple pie.
4 The pie was cut, the mouse ran out, The tailor followed him all about.
5 The tailor found his mouse was dead.
So he caught another in his stead. |
