Lyrics: On Springfield mountain there did dwell A handsome youth I knew him well This handsome youth one day did go Down to the meadow for to mow Tu-rudy-nay, tu-rudy-new, tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new Tu-rudy-nay, tu-rudy-new, tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new He had not mowed quite 'round the field When a poison serpent bit his heel They took him home to Molly dear Which made him feel so very queer Tu-rudy-nay, tu-rudy-new, tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new Tu-rudy-nay, tu-rudy-new, tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new Now Molly had two ruby lips With which the poison she did sip But Molly had a rotten tooth And so the poison killed them both Tu-rudy-nay, tu-rudy-new, tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new Tu-rudy-nay, tu-rudy-new, tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new |
