Lyrics

Froggy went a-courtin’ and he did ride, uh-huh (uh-huh)
Froggy went a -courtin’ and he did ride
Sword and pistol by his side, uh- huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Well, he went down to Miss Mousie’s door, uh-huh (uh-huh)
He went down to Miss Mousie’s door
Where he had often been before, uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

And he took Miss Mousie on his knee, uh-huh (uh-huh)
He took Miss Mousie on his knee, and he said,
“Miss Mousie, will you marry me?” uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

“Not without my Uncle Rat’s consent uh-huh (uh-huh)
Not without my Uncle Rat’s consent
I would not marry the President, uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Where will the wedding supper be? Uh-huh (uh-huh)
Where will the wedding supper be?
Way down yonder in a hollow tree, uh huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

First to come were the two little ants, uh-huh, uh-huh
Fixin’ around to have a dance, uh-huh, uh-huh
Next to come was a bumblebee
Bouncing a fiddle on his knee, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
