Letra de The Sow Took The Measles

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
