A FROG HE WOULD
A-WOOING GO
A Frog he would a-wooing go,
Heigho, saysRowley!
Whether his Mother would let him or no.
With a rowley-powley, gammon andspinach,
Heigho, saysAnthony Rowley!
So off he set with his opera-hat,
Heigho, saysRowley!
And on his way he met with a Rat.
With a rowley-powley, gammon andspinach,
Heigho, saysAnthony Rowley!
"Pray, MR. RAT, will you go with me,"
Heigho, saysRowley!
"Pretty MISS MOUSEY for to see?"
With a rowley-powley, gammon andspinach,
Heigho, saysAnthony Rowley!
Now they soon arrived at Mousey's Hall,
Heigho, saysRowley!
And gave a loud knock, and gave a loud call.
With a rowley-powley, gammon andspinach,
Heigho, saysAnthony Rowley!
"Pray, Miss MOUSEY, are you within?"
Heigho, saysRowley!
"Oh, yes, kind Sirs, I'm sitting to spin."
With a rowley-powley, gammon andspinach,
Heigho, saysAnthony Rowley!
"Pray, Miss MOUSE, will you give us somebeer?"
Heigho, saysRowley!
"For Froggy and I are fond of good cheer."
