Song Lyrics

Verse 1
My grandmother died and left me fifty pound,
I bought me a house and a little bit of ground;
I sold my house and bought me a cow,
For how to get on, I could not tell how.
I sold my cow and I bought me a calf,
Now I believe in my heart I lost half.
Chorus
Jack stock sliddle uck, fatty fiddle uck,
Ban to the broom,
Pick and hack, Jimmy Prack, ti mi diddle,
Ti mi diddle tum tay,
Hang the day that the bugle played for me.
Verse 2
So I sold my calf and bought me a mouse,
On purpose to have a pretty thing to run about my house,
In came a neighbour's cat and stole away my mouse,
I flung a fire stick at his tail, which burned down my house,
So played I till I played it all away.
Chorus
