“The Rattlin’ Bog”

Chorus:
Ho, ro, the rattlin' bog, 
The bog down in the valley-o. 
Ho, ro, the rattlin' bog, 
The bog down in the valley-o.

Well, in that bog there was a tree, 
A rare tree, a rattlin' tree, 
A tree in the bog,  
And a bog down in the valley-o. 

Chorus

Well, on this tree there was a bough, 
A rare bough, a rattlin' bough, 
A bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog,  
And the bog down in the valley-o. 

Chorus

And on this bough there was a limb, 
A rare limb, a rattlin' limb, 
A limb on the bough, 
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o. 

Chorus

Well, on this limb there was a branch, 
A rare branch, a rattlin' branch, 
A branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough, 
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

Now, on this branch there was a twig, 
A rare twig, a rattlin' twig, 
A twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough, 
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

Now, on this twig there was a leaf,
A rare leaf, a rattlin' leaf, 
A leaf on the twig,
And the twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb,
And the limb on the bough,
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

And on this leaf there was a nest
A rare nest, a rattlin' nest
A nest on the leaf,
And the leaf on the twig 
And the twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

And in this nest there was an egg, 
A rare egg, a rattlin' egg, 
An egg in the nest, 
And the nest on the leaf,
And the leaf on the twig, 
And the twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

Now, in this egg, there was a bird,
A rare bird, a rattlin' bird,
A bird in the egg,
And the egg in the nest,
And the nest on the leaf,
And the leaf on the twig, 
And the twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

Well, on this bird, there was a feather,
A rare feather, a rattlin’ feather,
A feather on the bird,
And the bird in the egg,
And the egg in the nest,
And the nest on the leaf,
And the leaf on the twig, 
And the twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.

Chorus

On this feather there was a flea,
A rare flea, a rattlin’ flea,
A flea on the feather,
And the feather on the bird,
And the bird in the egg,
And the egg in the nest,
And the nest on the leaf,
And the leaf on the twig, 
And the twig on the branch, 
And the branch on the limb, 
And the limb on the bough
And the bough on the tree, 
And the tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley-o.
