    He walked a crooked mile
    He got a crooked sixpence
    At a crooked style
    He bought a crooked cat
    And he killed a crooked mouse
    Them all lived together in a
    little crooked house.
    Ena mena mina mo
    Where did all my friends go
    To the east to the west
    To the old crows nest
    hopping in the garden
    Skipping over the sea
    If you don't want to bully us
    Out goes she.
    Abna babna babne buidhe
    Holsem tolsem leig do sgith
    potatoe roast single toes
    Out goes she
    Earl werl Ember lock
    s mls ten oclock
    she sprang she sprung
    She early rung.
