- Twelve Frenchmen all dressed in red
With their caps upon their head (s)
Eleven ships upon the Thain
Some from France and some from Spain
God send them all safe home again. (Another)Ten yards of black pudding would choke a dog
Nine auld monkeys fast to a log
Eight ould Mares stuck deep in a bog
Seven pups all Irish born
Six wild bears
Five running hares
Three black weasles
Two white yoes
Here's the grey goose and off she goes. (Another)There was a crooked man
And he walked a crooked mile
He found a crooked sixpence
Upon a crooked stile
He bought a crooked cat that killed a crooked mouse
And they all lived together in a litle crooked house.- Informant
