here is the Longview Washington version

Mary had a steamboat the steamboat had a bell
Mary went to heaven the steamboat went to hell
o operator give me number 9
If there is no answer give me back my dime

and there was another one I heard once in my life in 8th grade from Paula Perry and instantly committed to memory

Two Irishmen two Irishmen two Irishmen in a ditch
One of them called the other one you dirty son of a Peter Murphy had a dog a very fine dog was he he gave it to a lady to keep her company

She fed it she fed it she taught it how to jump it jumpted right up her petticoat and bit her on the ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies this is what Lulu said just before she died...

then go into Mary had a steamboat..
