Froggie Went a Courtin’ Songtext
von Bruce Springsteen

Mr. Froggy went a-courtin′ and he did ride, uh-huh
Mr. Froggy went a-courtin' and he did ride, uh-huh
Froggy went a-courtin′ and he did ride
A sword and pistol by his side, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

He went down to Miss Mousie's door, uh-huh
He went down to Miss Mousie's door, uh-huh
He went down to Miss Mousie′s door
Where he had often been before, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

He took Miss Mousie up on his knee, uh-huh
Said, "Miss Mousie will you marry me?", uh huh
"Without my Uncle Rat′s consent
I wouldn't marry the President," uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Alright!

Well, Uncle Rat he gave his consent, uh-huh
Hey, Uncle Rat he gave his consent, uh-huh
Now Uncle Rat he gave his consent
And the weasel wrote the publishment, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh


Well, now where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh
Well, where will the wedding supper be?
Way down yonder in a hollow tree, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Come on Soozie!

Yeah, the first come in was a flying moth, uh-huh
First come in was a flying moth, uh-huh
First come in was a flying moth
Who laid out the tablecloth, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Well, the next to come in was a junie bug, uh-huh
The next to come in was a junie bug, uh-huh
Next to come in was a junie bug
She brought the whiskey in a water jug, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Alright!

Next come in was a big black snake, uh-huh
Next come in was a big black snake, uh-huh
Next come in was a big black snake
Chased them all into the lake, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Little piece of cornbread laying on a shelf, uh-huh
Little piece of cornbread laying on a shelf, uh-huh
Little piece of cornbread laying on a shelf
If you want any more
You can sing it yourself, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh


Yip, go!
