Lyrics to Mister Frog Went A-Courting (Traditional Version)
Mister Frog Went A-Courting (Traditional Version) Video:
Mister frog went a-courting and he did rideUh-hmm, Uh-hmmMister frog went a-courting and he did rideA sword and pistol by his sideUh-hmm, Uh-hmm.He went down to Missy Mousie's doorWhere he had often been before.He said, "Missy Mouse, are you within?""Yes kind sir, I sit and spin."He took Missy Mouse upon his kneeAnd said "Missy Mouse, will you marry me?""Without my Uncle Rat's consent""I wouldn't marry the pres-I-dent."Uncle Rat laughed and shook his fat sides,To think his niece would be a bride.When Uncle Rat gave his consentThe weasel wrote the publishment.Where will the wedding supper be?Way down yonder in a holler tree.What will the wedding supper be?Two green beans and a black-eyed pea.The first guest in was a bumblebeeHe danced a jig with a crook-backed flea.The owl did hoot, the birds they sangAnd through the woods the music rang.They all went sailing 'cross the lakeAnd got swallered up by a big black snakeThere's bread and cheese upon the shelfIf you want any more you can sing it yourself
