This is the version I was taught from my mom and all of our family used to sing it when we would go up to Indiana.
Froggy went a courtin and he did ride Inktum bodamitcha cambo A derringer dagger by his side Inktum bodamitcha cambo Hida hero down to cairo, Hida hero to cairo Stradda-ladda-ladda-bobba-ladda-bobba-Inktum Inktum-bodamitcha cambo
Where will the wedding supper be Inktum bodamitcha cambo Way down yonder in a holler tree Inktum bodamitcha cambo Hida hero down to cairo, Hida hero to cairo Stradda-ladda-ladda-bobba-ladda-bobba-Inktum Inktum-bodamitcha cambo
First one there was Mrs. Drake " She got ate by a big black snake " " " Second one there was a big black bug " On his back was a whiskey jug " " " What will the wedding supper be " Fried mosquitoes and a side of fleas " "
