There was a pretty little lad.
And he lived by himself.
And all the meat he got
He put upon the shelf.
The rats and the mice
Did lead him such a life
That he went to Ireland
To get himself q wife.
The lanes they were so broad.
And the fields they were SO narrow,
He couldn't get his wife home
without a wheelbarrow.
The wheelbarrow broke.>
My wife she got a kick:
Bother that wheelbarrow
That spared my w!fe's neck.
