Oh once I had a little dog,
His color it was brown
I taught him for to whistle,
To sing and dance and run
His legs they were fourteen yards long,
His ears so very wide
Around the world in half a day,
Upon him I could ride.

Sing tarry-o day, sing,
Autumn to may.
Oh once I had a little frog,
He wore a vest of red
Hed lean upon his silver cane,
A top hat on his head
Hed speak of far off places,

Of things to see and do,
And all the kings and queens hed met
While sailing in a shoe.
Sing tarry-o day,
Sing, autumn to may.
Oh once I had a flock of sheep,
They grazed upon a feather
I'd keep them in a music box
From wind or rainy weather
And every day the sun would shine,
They fly all through the town

To bring me back some golden rings,
Candy by the pound.
Sing tarry-o day, sing, autumn to may.
Oh once I had a downey swan,
She was so very frail
She sat upon an oyster shell
And hatched me out a snail
The snail had changed into a bird,
The bird to butterfly
And he who tells a bigger tale
Would have to tell a lie.
Sing tarry-o day, sing, autumn to may.
