THE WONDERFUL DERBY RAM.
As I was going to Derby all on a market day,
I met the finest ram, sir, that ever was fed upon hay;
Upon hay, upon hay, upon hay; I met the finest ram, sir, that ever was fed upon hay.
This ram was fat behind, sir, this ram was fat before; This ram was ten yards round, sir; indeed he was no more;
No more, no more, no more; This ram was ten yards round, sir; indeed he was no more.
The horns that grew on his head, sir, they were so won­drous high, As I 've been plainly told, sir, they reached up to the sky;
The sky, the sky, the sky; As I 've been plainly told, sir, they reached up to the sky.
The tail that grew from his back, sir, was six yards and
an ell; And it was sent to Derby to toll the market bell;
The bell, the bell, the bell; And it was sent to Derby to toll the market bell.
