Once, there was a dog
The dog, it had a yard
The yard, it had a chicken
The chicken had a guard
The guard, it had a leash
The leash, it had a dog
Oops; this song is about as clear as fog

Once, there was a cat
The cat, it had a house
The house, it had a chicken
The chicken had a mouse
The mouse, it had some cheese
The cheese, it had an ant
Oops! Don't ask me to tell you the point; I can't

Once, there was a horse
The horse, it had a ranch
The ranch, it had a chicken
The chickеn had a branch
The branch, it had a bloom
The bloom, it had a bee
Oops; I forgot the rеst of this story

Once, there was a cow
The cow it had a barn
The barn, it had a chicken
The chicken had some yarn
The yarn, it had a knot
The knot, it had some fuzz
Oops; I forgot what the point of this song was
Once, there was a pig
The pig, it had a pen
The pen, it had a chicken
The chicken had a friend
The friend, it had a tail
The tail, it had some fur
Oops; I can't remember where we were

Once, there was a skunk
The skunk, it had a smell
The smell, it had a chicken
Jump into a well
To try to get away
From the smelly fog
Oops! I remember I was talking about a dog
