Mairzy Dotes & Dozy Doats (kids)

I know a ditty, nutty as a fruitcake--

Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon.

Some call it pretty, others call it crazy

But they all sing this tune, oh--

Mairzy-doats and dozey-doats

And little lambzie-divey.

A kiddley-divey, too, wouldn't you?

Mairzy-doats and dozey-doats

And little lambzie-divey

A kiddley-divey, too, wouldn't you.

If the words sound queer and funny to your ear

A little bit jumbled and jivey, sing

Mares eat oats and does eat oats

And little lambs eat ivy.

A kid'll eat ivy, too, wouldn't you
