I was looking for the verses of this song and found the ones on this site completely different from the ones I learned as a child from my father. Here are some of the ones I learned and would appreciate hearing from anyone who learned similar verses and can fill in the ones for David and Goliath, Noah, and Moses.Adam was a carpenter; Eve a carpenteress.
They raised Cain and Abel, cabbages and cress.
One day Adam hurried home and began to pull up stakes,
And strike the hurdy-gurdy 'cause Eve was seeing snakes.Daniel was a naughty boy who went before the king.
The king said, "Listen, Daniel, I won't stand for such a thing."
He put him in a den with lions underneath,
But Daniel was a dentist and he pulled the lions' teeth.Salome was a dancer; she danced the hoochie-kooch.
When she danced before the king, she didn't wear so mooch.
The king said to Salome, "That rough stuff don't go here."
So she said, "To heck with you, George," and kicked the chandelier.
