lyrics:
hi ho the rattlin' bog
the bog down in the valley-o
hi ho the rattlin' bog
the bog down in the valley-o

and in that bog, there was a tree
a rare tree a rattlin' tree
tree in the bog and the bog down in the valley-o

chorus:
hi ho the rattlin' bog
the bog down in the valley-o
hi ho the rattlin' bog
the bog down in the valley-o

and on that tree there was a limb
rare limb a rattlin' limb
limb on the tree and the tree in the bog
and the bog down in the valley-o

and on that limb there was a nest…
and in that nest there was a goose…
and on that goose there was a hat…
and on that hat there was a fish…
and on that fish there was a clock…
and on that clock there was a puppet…
