Link to the cucumber boat song, the original

THE CUCUMBER BOAT
(words by Lora L. Holmes)

Oh what fun it is to float
In a green cucumber boat
Paper lady-doll and man
Sitting straight as dollies can.

But alas! the boast upset
And the paper folk are wet!
Quickly homeward they will run
And dry themselves out in the sun.
