Frog went a-courtin’ and he did ride, uh-huh

Frog went a-courtin’ and he did ride
With a sword and a pistol by his side, uh-huh.

Well he rode right up to Miss Mousey’s door, uh-huh
He rode right up to Miss Mousey’s door, uh-huh
He rode right up to Miss Mousey’s door
Gave three loud raps and a very big roar, uh-huh.

Said, “Miss Mouse, are you within ?” uh-huh
Said he, “Miss Mouse, are you within ?” uh-huh
Said, “Miss Mouse, are you within ?”
“Yes, kind sir, I sit and spin,” uh-huh.

He took Miss Mousey on his knee, uh-huh
Took Miss Mousey on his knee, uh-huh
Took Miss Mousey on his knee
Said, “Miss Mousey, will you marry me ?” uh-huh.

“Without my uncle Rat’s consent, uh-huh
Without my uncle Rat’s consent, uh-huh
Without my uncle Rat’s consent
I wouldn’t marry the president, uh-huh”.

Uncle Rat laughed and he shook his fat sides, uh-huh

Uncle Rat laughed and he shook his fat sides
To think his niece would be a bride, uh-huh.

Uncle rat went runnin’ downtown, uh-huh

Uncle rat went runnin’ downtown
To buy his niece a wedding gown, uh-huh.

Where shall the wedding supper be ? uh-huh
Where shall the wedding supper be ? uh-huh
Where shall the wedding supper be ?
Way down yonder in a hollow tree, uh-huh.

What should the wedding supper be ? uh-huh
What should the wedding supper be ? uh-huh
What should the wedding supper be ?
Fried mosquito in a black-eyed pea, uh-huh.
Well, first to come in was a flyin’ moth, uh-huh.
First to come in was a flyin’ moth, uh-huh.
First to come in was a flyin’ moth
She laid out the table cloth, uh-huh.

Next to come in was a juney bug, uh-huh
Next to come in was a juney bug, uh-huh
Next to come in was a juney bug
She brought the water jug, uh-huh.

Next to come in was a bumbley bee, uh-huh
Next to come in was a bumbley bee, uh-huh
Next to come in was a bumbley bee
Sat mosquito on his knee, uh-huh.

Next to come in was a broken black flea, uh-huh
Next to come in was a broken black flea, uh-huh
Next to come in was a broken black flea
Danced a jig with the bumbley bee, uh-huh.

Next to come in was Mrs. Cow, uh-huh
Next to come in was Mrs. Cow, uh-huh
Next to come in was Mrs. Cow
She tried to dance but she didn’t know how, uh-huh.

Next to come in was a little black tick, uh-huh
Next to come in was a little black tick, uh-huh
Next to come in was a little black tick
She ate so much she made us sick, uh-huh.

Next to come in was a big black snake, uh-huh

Next to come in was a big black snake
Ate up all of the wedding cake, uh-huh.

Next to come in was the old gray cat, uh-huh

Next to come in was the old gray cat
Swallowed the mouse and ate up the rat, uh-huh.Mr.
Frog went a-hoppin’ up over the brook, uh-huh
Mr. Frog went a-hoppin’ up over the brook, uh-huh
Mr. Frog went a-hoppin’ up over the brook
A lily-whit duck come and swallowed him up, uh-huh.

A little piece of cornbread layin’ on a shelf, uh-huh
A little piece of cornbread layin’ on a shelf, uh-huh
A little piece of cornbread layin’ on a shelf
If you want any more, you can sing it yourself, uh-huh.
