Tidy Ann letra

There was a frog lived in a well
Fall aye linkum laddie
And a mouse that kept him ill
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

One day says the frog, "I'm going to court
Fall aye linkum laddie
With my shoes as black as soot"
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

The horse he rode was a big black snail
Fall aye linkum laddie
Saddle and bridle under his tail
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Frog rode up to mousie's hole
Fall aye linkum laddie
Rapped the door stout and bold
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

"Arrah, missie mouse, are you in?"
Fall aye linkum laddie
"Yes, I am, I sit and spin"
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

"Arrah, missie mouse, will you wed?
Fall aye linkum laddie
Will you come into my bed?"
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

"Now, uncle rat is not at home
Fall aye linkum laddie
Without his leave I'll marry none"
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Uncle rat, he then came down
Fall aye linkum laddie
In his silk and muslin gown
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Bring in the table 'til we dine
Fall aye linkum laddie
Change a farthing and bring in wine
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Just as the talk was getting slack
Fall aye linkum laddie
In walked a kittling and a cat
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Cat seized uncle by the crown
Fall aye linkum laddie
Kittling knocked wee mousie down
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Horsey snail rode up the wall
Fall aye linkum laddie
Says, "The devil's among you all"
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Frog, he then rode 'round the room
Fall aye linkum laddie
Just like any sporting groom
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

In came a flock of neighboring ducks
Fall aye linkum laddie
Soon devoured the bachelors up
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy

Now this whole family went to rack
Fall aye linkum laddie
Between the kittlins, ducks, and cats
Tidy Ann, Tidy Ann, ditherum di dum dandy
