Lyrics
V1: Oh, I had a horse, and his name was --Bill,
And when he ran he couldn't stand still,
He ran away, one day,
And, also, I ran with him.

V2: He ran so fast that he could not stop,
He ran into a barber shop,
And fell-exhaustionized,
With his eye teeth, in the barber's left __shoulder.

V3: I'm going out in the woods next year,
And shoot for gear-but not for deer,
I am-I ain't-,
I'm a great sharpshootress.

 

 

 
  V4: Oh, I went up in a balloon so big,
That the people on earth all looked like a pig,
Like a mice, like a geese,
Like fleases, and like flieses.

V5: The balloon turned up, with its bottom side --higher,
It fell on the head of a country squire,
She made a noise-like a steamboat,
And, also, like a popsicle.

V6: Oh, what could you do in a case like that?
Oh, what could you do, but sit on your hat?
On your mother, on your toothbrush?
On anything that's useful.
