"Froggy Went A Courtin"

Froggy went a-courtin' and he did ride, Uh-huh
Froggy went a-courtin' and he did ride, Uh-huh
Froggy went a-courtin' and he did ride
A sword and a pistol by his side, Uh-huh

He rode right up to Miss Mousie's door, Uh-huh: "Let me in!"
He rode right up to Miss Mousie's door, Uh-huh
He rode right up to Miss Mousie's door
And he hit it so hard that he made it roar, Uh-huh

Then Ms Mouse then let him in, Uh-huh: "Come in Mr. Froggy"
Then Ms Mouse then let him in, Uh-huh
Then Ms Mouse then let him in
And the way they courted, it was a sin, Uh-huh

He took Ms Mousie right on his knee, Uh-huh "Come here ya sweet thing"
Took Miss Mousie right on his knee, Uh-huh
Took Miss Mousie right on his knee
And he says, Miss Mousie, would you marry me?" Uh-huh

Miss Mouse, she says, "I don't know about that," Uh-huh
Miss Mouse, she says, "I don't know about that," Uh-huh
Miss Mouse, she says, "I don't know about that
"But I b'lieve to my soul, you'll have to ask uncle Rat"

The old Rat laughed as he give away the bride, Uh-huh: Huhuh
The old Rat laughed as he give away the bride, Uh-huh
The old Rat laughed as he give away the bride
He laughed and he laughed and he shook his fat sides: Huhuh

Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Where will the wedding supper be?
"A-way down yonder in the hollow tree Uh-huh

Well what did he get for a wedding gown? Uh-huh
What did he get for a wedding gown? Uh-huh
What did he get for a wedding gown?
A piece of hide of an old white hound Uh-huh

Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Way over yonder in a hollow tree, Uh-huh

The first guest was a big June-bug, Uh-huh
The first guest was a big June-bug, Uh-huh
The first to guest was a big June-bug
And he danced all around with a half a pint jug

The second guest was bumblebee, Uh-huh
The second guest was bumblebee, Uh-huh
The second come was bumblebee
And he danced around with a fiddle on his knee, Uh-huh

Pick one Jay
Alright

Well the third guest was a little grey mouse, Uh-huh. He was the bride's brother
Third guest was a little grey mouse, Uh-huh
Third guest was a little grey mouse, Uh-huh
And he says, "Mr. Froggy, could I rent you a house?" He was a real estate man you see

Well you know the frog he had to go on his honeymoon so
Mr Froggy went a-travalin' across the lake, Uh-huh
Froggy went a-travalin' across the lake, Uh-huh. Yeah he was a bull frog
Well Froggy went a-travalin' across the lake
And he got swallowed up, by a big black snake, Uh-huh
