I Know An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly 
(Rose Bonne/Alan Mills, Peer International)

I know an old lady who swallowed a fly;
I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

I know an old lady who swallowed a spider,
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly,
Perhaps she'll die.

BIRD - How absurd to swallow a bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider, etc.

CAT - Fancy that, to swallow a cat!,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird, etc.

DOG - What a hog, to swallow a dog!,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat, etc.

GOAT - She just opened her throat and swallowed the goat

HORSE - She's very coarse to swallow a horse,

HIPPOPOTAMUS - She just opened her epiglottimus,
And swallowed the hippopotamus!

DINOSAUR - I bet she was kind o' sore,
When she swallowed the dinosaur.

She swallowed the dinosaur to catch the hippopotamus, etc
