Said the farmer to his wife,
Let's have a party today
We will invite every body
To come sing, dance and to play.



They swept hay from the barn
And put all kinds of food to eat
And made hay bales for those
Who would really like a seat.



There was music a play'n
And ever body was hav'n fun
They danced and they played games
Yes sireeeeeeeee, that's just what they done.



Mork, the mule would shake his ears in tune
And miss hen began to pick and grin
George the horse danced with leapn frog
And pretty ladies danced in a spin.



Percy pig oinked when he sang
Oh what a time they all had
Sweet Molly curtsied, and offered her hand
To the lad, dressed in denim and plaid



Miss butterfly visited with buzzing bee
And the lightning bugs began to glow
The farm was so happy
And there was no one who didn't go.



Some danced, while others pranced
Some played games what fun
None were unhappy or sad at all
No, no, not even one.



Mama Kitty and her kittens
Chatted with Miss Mouse and Lady Pig
Mr. Horse jumped up on hind legs
And began to dance a fine jig.



Mr. Farmer played on his fiddle
While sittin' on a fence post
Every body agreed ~ o my yes
They enjoyed the fiddle the most.



They played and chatted, and danced
Away into the late of night
They didn't get home and into their beds.
Until it was daylight.
