These two related, but distinct versions come up in the Digitrad.
older? version
comedic version
I know another verse - I think I learned it from Hall and McGregor..
There wis a man o Nineveh, and he was wondrous wise,
He loupt intae a hawthorn hedge and scratched oot baith his eyes
An when he seen whit he hid done, he wis gey troubled then
So he loupt intae anither hedge and scratched then in again
Cheers
