nick cave and the bad seeds - mister frog went a-courting lyrics
mister frog went a-courting and he did ride
uh-hmm, uh-hmm
mister frog went a-courting and he did ride
a sword and pistol by his side
uh-hmm, uh-hmm.
he went down to missy mousie’s door
where 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 knee
and 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 consent
the 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 b-mblebee
he danced a jig with a crook-backed flea.
the owl did hoot, the birds they sang
and through the woods the music rang.
they all went sailing ‘cross the lake
and got swallered up by a big black snake
there’s bread and cheese upon the shelf
if you want any more you can sing it yourself.
