JOHNNY CROW'S PARTY
| Johnny Crow Plied Rake and Hoe | |
| And improved his little Garden. | |
| And the Eagle | |
| Looked quite regal | |
| In Johnny Crow's Garden | |
|
And the Cockatoo Said "Comment vous portez vous?" |
|
| And the Gander | |
| Didn't understand her; | |
|
But the Flamingo Talked the same lingo |
|
| In Johnny Crow's Garden. | |
| And the Bear | |
| Sang a sentimental Air, | |
|
But the Giraffe Was inclined to laugh; |
|
|
Even the Duckling Couldn't help chuckling In Johnny Crow's Garden. |
|
| Then the Snake | |
| Got entangled with the rake | |
| In Johnny Crow's Garden. | |
| And the Cock | |
| Had a very nasty knock; | |
|
So the Hen Said: |
|
| "We'll never come again | |
| To Johnny Crow's Garden!" | |
| And the Sheep | |
| Went to sleep, | |
| And the Armadillo | |
| Used him for a pillow; | |
| And the Porcupine | |
| Said: "Wake me if for talk you pine!" | |
| In Johnny Crow's | |
| Garden. | |
| And the Kangaroo | |
| Tried to paint the Roses blue | |
|
Till the Camel Swallowed the Enamel. |
|
|
And the Reindeer Said: "I'm sorry for your pain, dear!" |
|
| In Johnny Crow's Garden. | |
|
So the Chimpanzee Put the Kettle on for Tea; |
|
| And the Seal | |
| Made a very big Meal; | |
|
While the Sole Shared a Muffin with the Mole In Johnny Crow's Garden. |
|
|
Then they picked the Flowers, and wandered in the Maze, And before they went their several ways |
|
|
They all joined together In a Hearty Vote of Praise |
|
| Of Johnny Crow and his Garden. |
