To market to market to buy a fat pig. Home again home again jiggety jig. To market to market to buy a fat hog. Home again home again jiggety jog. (I actually sing this to our dogs and bird in the car as we approach home. They get excited.) ---

For a British tar is a soaring soul As free as a mountain bird! His energetic fist should be ready to resist A dictatorial word! His eyes should flash with an in-born fire, His brow with scorn be wrung, He never should bow down to a domineering frown, Or the tang of a tyrant tongue His nose should pant, and his lip should curl, His cheeks should flame; and his brow should furl, His bosom should heave, and his heart should glow, And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow. His foot should stamp, and his throat should growl, His hair should twirl, and his face should scowl, His eyes should flash, and his breast protrude, And this should be his customary attitude! His a-tti-tude! His a-tti-tude! His a-ttiii-tuuude!!! ---

Rudolph, the disco reindeer Had some very shiny pants And every time you saw him He’d be at the disco dance All of the other reindeer Used to laugh and call him, “Queer.” They never saw old Rudolph Watching sports or drinking beer. Then one sorry Tuesday night, Santa came to say, “Rudolph, with your skin tight pants Let’s head down to the disco dance.” Then how the reindeer booed him And a few were heard to say, “Rudolph, the disco reindeer Made Santa Claus turn gay!” (National Lampoon — 1982-ish) ---

I was born a hundred thousand years ago, And there’s nothing in this world that I don’t know. I saw Peter, Paul, and Moses Playing ‘Ring Around the Roses’ And I’ll whip the guy who says it isn’t so. I met Adam and Eve before they knew the score. It was I designed the fig leafs that they wore. When the apple they were eating I was in the bushes peeking, And I swear that I’m the guy who ate the core. _ **-“BB”-** _ ---

Ah, come all ye jolly jokers And listen while I hum And relate to you the story of The great American bum. From north to south and east to west Like a swarm of bees they come, Sleep in the dirt and wear a shirt That’s filthy and full of crumb. Oh, it’s early in the morning And the dew is on the ground. The bum arises from his nest And gazes all around. From the boxcar to the haystack He gazes everywhere And never looks back upon his track Until he’s beat a square. ---

Late last night when we were all in bed, Mrs. O’Leary left her lantern in the shed. The cow kicked it over, and this is what they said: “There’ll be a hot time in the old town tonight!” When you hear those bells go ding-a-ling, All join 'round and sweetly you must sing. And when t’verse is through, the chorus all join in: “There’ll be a hot time in the old town tonight!” ---

Bet your bottom dollar you’ll lose the blues In Chicago, Chicago The town that Billy Sunday couldn’t shut down On State Street that great street I just want to say They do things they don’t do on Broadway They have a time, the time of their life I saw a man who danced with his wife In Chicago, Chicago my hometown ---
