There was a man, he was so mad he jumped into a pudding bag the pudding bag it was so rotten he jumped into a ball of cotton the ball of cotton it was so fine he jumped into a glass of wine the glass of wine it was so good he jumped into a log of wood the log of wood it was so hard he jumped into a pan of lard the pan of lard it was so fat he jumped into my old hat my old hat it was so hairy he jumped into my sister Mary my sister Mary gave a shout and with a (blow raspberry) she blew him out!
