The Tailor and the Mouse

There was a tailor had a mouse
Hi diddle um come feed-a
They lived together in one house
Hi diddle um come feed-a

cho: Hi diddle um, come tintrum tantrum
Through the town of Ramsey,
Hi diddle um, come over the lea
Hi diddle um come feed-a

The tailor had a tall silk hat
The mouse he ate it, fancy that

The tailor chased him over the lea
The last of that mouse he never did see.
