And a merry mouse in the dell
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

Said the frog, "I must go forth"
"Hi ho," said Roly
Said the frog, "I must go forth"
With me bayonet and me sword
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

Little Miss Mouse was having her tea

Says he, "Missy Mouse, would ya marry me?"
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

Down at the butt of an ivy tree
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

Now we′re all in very good cheer
"Hi ho," said Roly
Now we're all in very good cheer
If we had some music here
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

In came the bumblebee
"Hi ho," said Roly
In came the bumblebee
And clamped a bagpipe on his knee
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

Now we′re all in very good cheer
If we had some dancin′ here
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

"Hi ho," said Roly

He up and danced a jig on the mat
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly

The frog jumped up with a terrible fright
"Hi ho," said Roly
The frog jumped up with a terrible fright
He dobbed his hat and he said goodnight

"Hi ho," said Roly
As the frog was crossing the stream
A big duck came and jabobbled him up
With me roly poly cabbage and spinach
And hi for Anthony Roly
