This old man, he played one
He played knick-knack on my drum
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man, he played two
He played knick-knack on my shoe
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
And this old man, he played three
He played knick-knack on my knee
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man, he played four
He played knick-knack on my door
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
And this old man, he played five
He played knick-knack on my hive
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
And this old man, he played six
He played knick-knack on my sticks
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man, he played seven
He played knick-knack on my devon
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man, he played eight
He played knick-knack on my gate
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
And this old man, he played nine
He played knick-knack on my line
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
And this old man, he played ten
He played knick-knack on my hen
With a knick-knack paddywhack
Give the dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
And this old man, he's gone
