The branch on the tree,
And the tree in the bog,
And the bog down in the valley-oh!

V3: Now, on this branch,
There was a limb,
A rare limb,
A rattlin' limb,
The limb on the branch,
And the branch on the tree,
And the tree in the bog,
And the bog down in the valley-oh!

The twig on the limb,
The limb on the branch,
The branch on the tree,
And the tree down in the valley-oh.
