FROGGIE WENT ACOURTIN? (Variant?)
FROGGIE WENT ACOURTIN’

From Alice L. (FROGGIE WENT ACOURTIN ?) There was a song we sang on long school bus rides.... I can't find the words...it goes like this..

There was a mouse who lived on a hill - ah ha, ah ha
There was a mouse who lived on a hill, who (was) ruff and tuff as buffalo
bill ah ha, ah ha

One day he set out for a ride, ah ha, ah ha
One day he set out for a ride and sat his pistol by his side ah ha, aha

He went to Ms. Lucy's door, ah ha, ah ha
He went to Ms. Lucy's door and knocked and knocked til his fist got sore, ah ha, ah.

There's more but I can't remember and can't find it anywhere, can you help?

Ed Note: I can't find the song. . . but it sounds like a variant of Froggie Went Acourtin'. How about it ---anyone out there know this song?
