The Tailor And The Mouse Lyrics - Singles - Burl Ives

Some people have dogs for pets 

And some people have cats but 

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 

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 

Hi diddle um come feed a 

The mouse he ate it, fancy that 

Hi diddle um come feed a 

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, he chased him over the lea 

Hi diddle um come feed a 

The last of that mouse he never did see 

Hi diddle um come feed a 

Hi diddle um, come tintrum tantrum 

Through the town of Ramsey 

Hi diddle um, come over the lea 

Hi diddle um come feed a
