A Frog He Would a Wooing Go

A Frog He Would a Wooing Go is a nursery rhyme.

Lyrics
A frog he would a wooing go

Heigh ho, says Rowley

A frog he would a wooing go

Whether his mother will let him or no

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

So off he set with his opera hat

Heigh ho, says Rowley

So off he set with his opera hat

And on the road he met with the rat

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

Pray Mr Rat, will you go with me

Heigh ho, says Rowley

Pray Mr Rat, will you go with me

Kind Mistress Mousey for to see

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

They came to the door of Mousey Hall

Heigh ho, says Rowley

They came to the door of Mousey Hall

They gave a loud knock and they gave a loud call

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

Pray Mistress Mouse, are you within

Heigh ho, says Rowley

Pray Mistress Mouse, are you within

Yes kind sirs I am sitting to spin

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

Pray Mistress Mouse, will you give us some beer

Heigh ho, says Rowley

Pray Mistress Mouse, will you give us some beer

While Froggy and I are fond of good cheer

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

Pray Mr Frog, will you give us a song

Heigh ho, says Rowley

Pray Mr Frog, will you give us a song

Let it be something that's not very long

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

Indeed Mistress Mouse, replied Mr Frog

Heigh ho, says Rowley

Indeed Mistress Mouse, replied My Frog

A cold has made me as hoarse as a dog

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

Since you have a cold Mr Frog, Mousey said

Heigh ho, says Rowley

Since you have a cold Mr Frog, Mousey said

I'll sing you a song that I have just made

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

But while they were all a merry making

Heigh ho, says Rowley

But while they were all a merry making

A cat and her kittens came tumbling in

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

The cat she seized the rat by the crown

Heigh ho, says Rowley

The cat she seized the rat by the crown

The kittens they pulled the little mouse

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

This put Mr Frog in a terrible fright

Heigh ho, says Rowley

This put Mr Frog in a terrible fright

He took off his hat and he wished them goodnight

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

But as Froggy was crossing over a brook

Heigh ho, says Rowley

But as Froggy was crossing over a brook

A lily white duck came and gobbled him up

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.

So there was an end of one, two, three

Heigh ho, says Rowley

So there was an end of one, two, three

The rat and the mouse and the little Froggy

With a roly poly, gammon and spinach

Heigh ho, says Anthony Rowley.
