Here's the way we used to sing it when we wuz kids. We got it from my Dad: Walkin' along the RR Track a' doin' any harm Along came a cop and grabbed me by the arm He took me to a little house and there he rang a bell The next thing I knew I was sittin' in a cell. Woke up in the morning Looked up on the wall The cooties and the bed bugs were having a game of ball The score was 6 to nothing the Cooties were ahead A Cootie hit a homer and knocked me out of bed. [And then we'd add - with a different tune]: "Oh ain't we crazy, oh ain't we crazy this is the way we pass the time away 'Oh ain't we crazy, oh ain't we crazy this is the way we pass the time away."
