Lyrics:


There was a tailor had a mouse.
Hi diddle um come feed-al.
They lived together in one house.
Hi diddle um come feed-al.

Chorus (after each verse)
Hi diddle um come tarum tirum,
Through the town of Ramsey,
Hi diddle um come over the lea,
Hi diddle um come feed-al.

The tailor thought his mouse was ill.
He gave him part of a blue pill.

The tailor thought the mouse would die.
He baked him in an apple pie.

The pie was cut, the mouse ran out.
The tailor chased him all about.

The tailor had a tall silk hat.
The mouse he ate it, fancy that.

The tailor chased him over the lea.
The last of that mouse he never did see.
