I know a ditty, nutty as a fruitcake 
Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon 
Some call it pretty, others call it crazy 
But they all sing this tune: 

Mairzy doats And dozy doats 
And liddle lamzy divey 
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you? 

Yes! Mairzy doats And Dozy Doats 
And liddle lamzy divey 
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you? 

If the words sound queer and funny to your ear,
A little bit jumbled and jivey, 
Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats 
And little lambs eat ivy" 

Oh! mairzy doats and dozy doats 
And liddle lamzy divey 
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you - oo? 
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
