GUEST,Hannah DC Lyr Req: Somebody threw a tomato at him (82* d) RE: Lyr Req: Somebody threw a tomato at him 22 Jan 08


The 3 verses I grew up with were:

"To market, to market went my cousin Jim,
When somebody threw a tomato at him,
Tomatoes are soft and they don't break the skin,
But this one killed Jim - it was wrapped in a tin!"

"Mary the milkmaid was milking a cow,
The trouble with Mary she didn't know how!
The farmer came round and he gave her the sack,
So she tipped the cow over and poured the milk back!"

"Roger was taking his time in the shower,
Sue called from downstairs - 'You've been in for an hour!'
Roger called back - 'I'll be down in a tick!'
But he slipped on the soap and by Gee! He was quick!"

With a chorus of only

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

To the same tune as the verse.
