1. frog went a-courtin', and he did ride, uh-huh
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

2. well he rode up to miss mousey's door, uh-huh
Well he rode up to miss mousey's door, uh-huh
Well he rode up to miss mousey's door
Gave three loud raps and a very big roar, uh-huh

3. 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

4. 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

5. "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

6. uncle rat laughed and he shook his fat sides, 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

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

8. 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

9. 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-eye pea, uh-huh

10. 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

11. 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

12. 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

13. 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

14. 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
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

17. next to come was the old gray cat, uh-huh
Next to come was the old gray cat, uh-huh
Next to come was the old gray cat
Swallowed the mouse and ate up the rat, uh-huh

18. 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-white duck come and swallowed him up, uh-huh

19. 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 anymore, you can sing it yourself, uh-huh
