oh where have you been the live long day My little wee pruden dooo?

I've been to see my step mother Oh mammiie come make my bed new

And what did your step mother give youto eat? My little wee pruden doo?

She gave me two wee green fish

Oh Mammie come make my bed new

and what did you do with the bones of the fish My little wee pruden doo?

She gave them to My poor wee dog

Oh Mamie come make my bed new

and what did your dog when he ate of the fish? my little wee pruden dooo?

He laid his wee self down and he died Oh Mamie come make my bed new
