Wing, Wang, Waddle, Oh

MY father he died, but I can’t tell you how,
He left me six horses to drive in my plough;
With my wing, wang, waddle, oh,
Jack sing saddle, oh,
Blowsey boys buble, oh,
Under the broom.

I sold my six horses and I bought me a cow,
I’d fain have made a fortune but did not know how;
  With my wing, wang, waddle, oh,
  Jack sing saddle, oh,
  Blowsey boys buble, oh,
  Under the broom.

I sold my cow, and I bought me a calf;
I’d fain have made a fortune but lost the best half;
  With my wing, wang, waddle, oh,
  Jack sing saddle, oh,
  Blowsey boys buble, oh,
  Under the broom.

I sold my calf, and I bought me a cat;
A pretty thing she was, in my chimney corner sat;
  With my wing, wang, waddle, oh,
  Jack sing saddle oh,
  Blowsey boys buble, oh,
  Under the broom.

I sold my cat and bought me a mouse;
He carried fire in his tail, and burnt down my house;
  With my wing, wang, waddle, oh,
  Jack sing saddle, oh,
  Blowsey boys buble, oh,
  Under the broom.
