Grandparents will recognize this classic tune originally by Johnny Mercer. So much fun for little ones…I remember it from my childhood even. (And yes, the spelling is correct on these original lyrics):
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?
