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 (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 found his mouse was dead So he bought another one in his stead
