ii. oft of an e’en ere night is nigh
oft of an e’en, ere night is nigh
[unknown]
three naughty little elves once stole my staff
up their sleeves, they all did laugh
up their sleeves, they all did laugh
they won’t be back again today
i belong to the n.r.a
i belong to the n.r.a
iii. he came from over yonder ridge
he came from over yonder ridge
he said he owned the brooklyn bridge
hah! but now he’s gone
he kissed my hand
he called me fleur
he pushed my b~ttons
that’s for sure
yeah, but now he’s gone
how long, i asked him, will you stay?
said he, “forever and a day”
natch, now he’s gone
iv. the farmer on the dole
there was a jolly farmer, and he worked from morn to night
he went to church on sunday, and he knew from wrong and right
he worked so hard, he ended up with more than he could eat
he sold the rest so he could buy the shoes upon his feet
a friendly~looking stranger came a~riding up one day
“h~llo!” he said: “i want you all your crops to throw away!”
“you’re crazy,” said the farmer, “‘least as far as i can tell”
“don’t worry,” said the strager, “i will pay you very well”
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
it’s heigh~ho spaghettio
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
the farmer
the farmer on the dole
“the world is full of hunger,” said the farmer, “this is wrong
what happens if i tell you i refuse to go along?”
“well, you’ll be very sorry,” said the stranger with a grin
“you can’t get by without me, and i won’t be by again!”
“i’ll help you if you let me
if you don’t, i let you die”
“i guess i’ll have to join you,” said the farmer with a sigh
“you’ve made a wise decision,” said the smoothly~talking man
“you never know when the fertilizer’s gonna hit the fan”
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
it’s heigh~ho spaghettio
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
the farmer
the farmer on the dole
“just sign upon the dotted line and throw your crops away
and if you never plant again, i’ll still be glad to pay”
“i’m puzzled,” said the farmer: “what the devil’s going on?”
“you’re getting warmer,” said the stranger, as he vanished with a yawn
the moral of the story
please attend to very well
exactly who the devil is is often hard to tell
he may be short and ugly, or he may be fair and tall
he may just be the man for whom you voted in the fall
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
it’s heigh~ho spaghettio
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole
the farmer
the farmer on the dole
the farmer on the dole!
