I was taught this version: "There was an old prophecy found in a bog Nicketty nacketty noo noo noo We should be ruled by an ass and a dog Hey willy wollocky hoo John Dougal Malone quo rushetty roo roo roo And now that prophecy has come to pass Nicketty nacketty noo noo noo "Name" is the dog and "name" is the ass Hey willy wollocky hoo John Dougal Malone quo rushetty roo roo roo There were more verses and I can't remember the two names involved. I think it came from a Cecil Sharp school song book.
