Oh, man, I should NOT have switched to tequila last night.
Hi ho, the rattlin’ drive,
The drive down in the valley-o
Hi ho, the rattlin’ drive,
The drive down in the valley-o
Now in the drive, there was a car,
A rare car, a rattlin’ car
The car in the drive,
And the drive down in the valley-o
And in that car, there was a seat
A rear seat, a rattlin’ seat,
Seat in the car and the car in the drive
And the drive down in the valley-o
And on that seat, there was a box,
A rare box, a rattlin’ box,
Box on the seat, and the seat in the car and the car in the drive
And the drive down in the valley-o
And in that box, there was a cat,
A rare cat, a rattlin’ cat
Cat in the box and the box on the seat and the seat in the car and the car in the drive,
And the drive down in the valley-o
And on that cat, there was an ear,
A rare ear, a rattlin’ ear
Ear on the cat and the cat in the box and the box on the seat and the seat in the car and the car in the drive
And the drive down in the valley-o
And on that ear, there was a flea,
A rare flea, a rattlin’ flea
Flea on the ear and the ear on the cat and the cat in the box and the box on the seat and the seat in the car and the car in the drive
And the drive down in the valley-o
[Note: This entry is based on “The Rattlin’ Bog,” one of my favourite “spoon tunes.” It’s a traditional Irish “foolery song,” and is fun to play spoons to, as it speeds up the more things are added, just to fit them all in. I’ve managed to make it to the end a few times, with a few bands, but not all. My hands take a beating, no matter who I play with.
But when I saw the cat in the box and the box on the seat and the seat in the car, I couldn’t resist building upon that, using “The Rattlin’ Bog” as a model.]
@Spoons takes it. Besides being Irish, that was an excellent song.
@Dr.Winston_OBoogie in second both because I’m a C&H fan(who isn’t?) and because it so closely paralleled my initial reaction when I first saw the picture. Though mine involved a man petting a kitten and a spell being broken.
Thanks! Let’s stick with animals …
