Froggie Went A-Courtin'

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