Now in this bog there was a tree;
A fine tree a rattling tree,
And a tree in the bog, 
And the bog down in the valley.

Chorus:
Fine bog, a rattling bog,
A bog down in the valley, o.

On this tree there was a limb,
On this limb there was a branche,
On this branch there was a twig,
On this twing there was a nest,
In this nest there was an egg,
In this egg there was a bird,
On this bird there was a wing,
On this wing there was a feather,
From this feather was made a bed,
On this bed there was a woman,
On this women there was a man,
In this man there was a seed,
From a seed there grew a tree.

Fine bog, a rattling bog
