Fiddle-de-dee, Fiddle-de-dee, The fly has married the humble bee. Says the fly, says he, “Will you marry me, And live with me, Sweet humble bee?” 2Says the bee, says she, “I’ll live under your wing, “And you’ll never know “That I carry a sting.” Fiddle-de-dee, &c. 3So when the parson Had joined the pair, They both went out To take the air, Fiddle-de-dee, &c. 4And the flies did buzz, And the bells did ring— Did ever you hear So merry a thing? Fiddle-de-dee, &c. 5And then to think That of all the flies The humble bee Should carry the prize. Fiddle-de-dee, &c. |
