Rattlin' Bog

(traditional)


Oh, row, the rattlin' bog
The bog down in the valley, oh
Oh, row, the rattlin' bog
The bog down in the valley, oh

In the bog there was a tree
A rare tree, a rattlin' tree
Tree in the bog
And the bog down in the valley, oh

On the tree there was a limb
A rare limb, a rattlin' limb
Limb on the tree
And the tree in the bog
And the bog down in the valley, oh

. . .

From the bird there came this song
A rare song, a rattlin' song
Song from the bird
And the bird from the egg
And the egg in the nest
And the nest on the twig
And the twig on the branch
And the branch on the limb
And the limb on the tree
And the tree in the bog
And the bog down in the valley, oh
