Lyrics

Froggy went a-courtin' and he did ride, uh-huh (uh-huh)
Froggy went a -courtin' and he did ride
Sword and pistol by his side, uh- huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Well, he went down to miss mousie's door, uh-huh (uh-huh)
He went down to miss mousie's door
Where he had often been before, uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

And he took miss mousie on his knee, uh-huh (uh-huh)
He took miss mousie on his knee, and he said
"Miss mousie, will you marry me?" uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

"Not without my uncle rat's consent uh-huh (uh-huh)
Not without my uncle rat's consent
I would not marry the president, uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Where will the wedding supper be? uh-huh (uh-huh)
Where will the wedding supper be?
Way down yonder in a hollow tree, uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

First to come were the two little ants, uh-huh, uh-huh
Fixin' around to have a dance, uh-huh, uh-huh
Next to come was a bumblebee
