Hello! I wonder if you can help me with a tune, though perhaps there really isn't one. It's for "The Tune the Cow Died Of" but the words given to me are quite different from "Farmer John" and I've never heard anyone sing it. Nor do I know whether there are more words. What do you think? There was an old man and he had an old cow, And he had no fodder to give her. So he took up his fiddle and played her this tune. Consider, good cow, consider. This isn't the time for the grass to grow. Consider, good cow, consider.
