My Dad always used to sing it to me when I was little. He called it my "short bedtime story". He's from Baltimore, MD and grew up in the 1940's and 1950's. It's so neat to see all these different variations from America and Great Britain!

Once upon a time
The Goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line
The line broke
The monkey choked
And they all went to heaven in a little green boat......Toot Toot!
