1.
My daddy is dead, but I can't tell you how;
He left me six horses to follow the plough;
With my whim wham waddle ho!
Strim stram straddle ho!
Bubble ho! pretty boy, over the brow.
2.
I sold my six horses to buy me a cow;
And wasn't that a pretty thing to follow the plough?

I sold my cow to buy me a calf,
For I never made a bargain but I lost the best half.
With my, &c.

I sold my calf to buy me a cat,
To sit down before the fire to warm her little back.
With my, &c.
5.
I sold my cat to buy me a mouse,
But she took fire in her tail and so burnt up my house.
With my, &c.
