POLLY HAD A POODLE
As recorded by Matt McGinn on "Little Ticks of Time" (1969)

CHORUS: Polly had a poodle-o, poodle-o, poodle-o.
Polly had a poodle-o, piddled all the day.
Piddled on the carpet, piddled on the chair,
Piddled on the sofa, piddled on the flair [=floor].
Polly's poodle piddled all the day.

1. Polly brought the polis in to gie the dog a boot.
When he he come in, the doggie had a wee run oot. CHORUS

2. The farmers all around had a very heavy yield.
They hired polly's poodle to irrigate the field. CHORUS

3. They took him out to India; there they let him out.
Since the day he got there, they've never had a drought. CHORUS

4. If Wullie …(?) fitba, he knew all the rules.
He never missed a post when he was daein(?) the pools. CHORUS TWICE
