the sow took the measles - burl ives lyrics
boys and girls sometimes get the measles
but in this song even a sow
which is another name for a lady pig
took the measles too
how do you think i begin in the world?
i got me a sow and sev’ral other things;
the sow took the measles and she died in the spring
what do you think that i made of her hide?
the very best saddle that you ever did ride;
saddle or bridle or any such a thing
the sow took the measles and she died in the spring
what do you think that i made of her nose?
the very best thimble that ever sewed clothes;
thimble or thread or any such thing
the sow took the measles and she died in the spring
what do you think i made of her tail?
the very best whup that ever sought sail;
whup or whup*socket, any such thing
the sow took the measles and she died in the spring
what do you think that i made of her feet?
the very best pickles that you ever did eat;
pickles or glue or any such thing
the sow took the measles and she died in the spring
