Polly Wolly Doodle

Oh, I eat watermelon and I have for years Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day I like watermelon but it wets my ears Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day Maybe grass tastes good to a moo cow's mouth Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day But I like chicken 'cause I'm from the south Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day Fare-thee well (farewell) Fare-thee well (farewell) Mister gloom be on your way If you think you're gonna worry You can stop it in a hurry Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day Well, the woodpecker pecks 'til he gets his fill Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day But the woodpecker pays 'cause it's on his bill Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day Oh, I feed my pigs with molasses yam Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day So they should be sweeter than they really am Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day Fare-thee well (farewell) Fare-thee well (farewell) Mister gloom be on your way Though you haven't any money You can still be bright and sunny Sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day --- Polly Wolly Doodle - Shirley Temple
