Oh, mairzy doats and doazy doats and little lamzey-divey
A kiddely-divey too, wouldn't you?
Mairzy doats and doazy doats and little lamzey-divey
A kiddely-divey too, wouldn't you?
If the weirds sound queer, (Hi Connie!) and funny to your ear
A little bit jumbled and jivey
Say "Mares eat oats"
And "Does eat oats"
And "Little lambs eat ivy"
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you? (I never tried)
Everybody dance!
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too.
(Interrupted) Not... not yet Connie... it's coming up though
Oh... I was so excited
One, two, three, four.
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you? (Good for you?)
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you? (It's good for goats!)
If the weirds sound queer, and funny to your ear
A little bit jumbled and jivey
Say "Mares eat oats"
"Does eat oats"
And "Little lambs eat ivy"
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you? (Chocolate-covered!)
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?
