| Married a wife in the month of June
|
| Risselty rosselty, now now now!
|
| I carried her off by the light of the moon (in a silver spoon)
|
| Risselty rosselty, hey bombosity, nickety nackety
|
| Retrical quality, willaby wallaby now now now!
|
| She combed her hair but once a year
|
| Risselty rosselty, now now now!
|
| With every rake she gave a tear
|
| Risselty rosselty, hey bombosity, (etc.)
|
| She swept the floor but once a year
|
| Risselty rosselty, now now now!
|
| She swore her broom was much too dear
|
| Risselty rosselty, hey bombosity, (etc.)
|
| She churned the butter in dad’s old boot
|
| Risselty rosselty, now now now!
|
| And for a dasher she uses her foot
|
| Risselty rosselty, hey bombosity, (etc.)
|
| The butter came out a grizzledy gray
|
| Risselty rosselty, now now now!
|
| The cheese took legs and ran away
|
| Risselty rosselty, hey bombosity, (etc.)
|
| (Peggy Seeger)
|
| The butter and cheese is on the shelf
|
| Risselty rosselty, now now now!
|
| If you want any more you can sing it yourself
|
| Risselty rosselty, hey bombosity, (etc.)
|
| (from miriam berg’s folksong collection) |
