Hey Gang,

We used to sing this song at Franke Park Day Camp in Fort Wayne, Indaina, in the 70s. Here's one more verse:

I knew a man whose name was Zeke
He had a pair of wooden false teeth
He put 'em on a chair, instead of on a shelf
And when he sat down, he bit himself!

On the Rummy Line, on the Dummy Line
Rain or Shine, you pay your fine
Rain or shine, you pay your fine
When you're ride, ride, ridin'
On the Rummy Dummy Line.

I knew a gal whose name was Teal
She had a face like a lemon peel...
(same as other verses that use "Moblile" to rhyme with "peel."
