Now Froggy went a-courting and he did ride, mm-hm
(Bad Frog!)
Oh the Froggy went a-courting and he did ride, unh-hunh
(Oh yes)
Froggy went a-courting and he did ride
Sword and shield hanging by his side, unh-hunh, mm-hm
(That's the truth too, brother)
Ah, he rode up by Miss Mousie's door, uhn-hunh
(Now there come Freddy. That's the truth, though)
Oh, he rode up by Miss Mousie's door, unh-hunh
Rode up by Miss Mousie's door
Place he'd been many times before, unh-hunh
Hey, Miss Mousie, will you marry me? Unh-hunh
(Lord, old Freddy)
Hey, Miss Mousie, will you marry me? Unh-hunh
Hey, Miss Mousie, will you marry me
Be as good to you as anybody can be, unh-hunh
(Lord, Freddy)
Without my uncle's consent, unh-hunh
Without my uncle's consent, unh-hunh
[Omitted
Without my uncle's consent, Freddy!
I couldn't marry a president, unh-hunh
Uncle told her it'd be alright, unh-hunh
(Lord have mercy! Wasn't old Freddy glad!)
Uncle told her it'd be alright, unh-hunh
They got married that very night, eh-hunh
(Unh-hunh)
All took a sail out on the lake, unh-hunh
All took a sail out on the lake, unh-hunh
All took a sail out on the lake
Got glupped up by a big black snake, unh-hunh
