- The more you take out of it the bigger it gets. A grave.What is it that always walks with its head down. A nail in a man's bot.Patch upon patch without any stitches. A head of cabbage.Middy-noddy round body three feed and a wooden hat. A pot.
- Riddle me riddle me what is that, over head and under the hat?
The hair of your head.A bridge upon a lake without stick nor stone.
Ice upon a lake. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
