Lyrics

A frog went a courtin' and he did ride, mmm-hmmm A frog went a courtin' and he did ride A sword and a pistol by his side, mmm-hmmm He went down to Missy Mouse's door, mmm-hmmm He went down to Missy Mouse's door Where he had been many times before, mmm-hmmm "Missy Mouse, are you within?" mmm-hmmm "Missy Mouse, are you within?" "Yes, kind sir, I sit and spin." mmm-hmmm Took Missy Mouse upon his knee, mmm-hmmm Took Missy Mouse upon his knee And said, "Missy Mouse, will you marry me?" mmm-hmmm Without my Uncle Rat's consent, mmm-hmmm Without my Uncle Rat's consent I wouldn't marry the president, mmm-hmmm Uncle Rat laughed and shook his fat sides, mmm-hmmm Uncle Rat laughed and shook his fat sides To think his niecе would be a bride. mmm-hmmm When Unclе Rat did his consent, mmm-hmmm When Uncle Rat did his consent The weasel wrote the publishment, mmm-hmmm Next came in was a bumblebee, mmm-hmmm Next came in was a bumblebee Danced a jig with a two-legged flea, mmm-hmmm The owl did hoot and the birds they sang, mmm-hmmm The owl did hoot and the birds they sang And through the woods the music rang, mmm-hmmm Where will the wedding breakfast be? mmm-hmmm Where will the wedding breakfast be? He went down yonder in a hollow tree, mmm-hmmm What will the wedding breakfast be? mmm-hmmm What will the wedding breakfast be? Two green beans and a black-eyed pea, mmm-hmmm They all went sailing across the lake, mmm-hmmm They all went sailing across the lake And got swallowed up by a big black snake, mmm-hmmm There's bread and cheese upon the shelf, mmm-hmmm There's bread and cheese upon the shelf If you want any more, you can sing it yourself, mmm-hmmm
