Lyrics:
The farmer in the dellThe farmer in the dell
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The farmer in the dell
The farmer takes a wife
The farmer takes a wife
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The farmer takes a wife
The wife takes a child (2x)
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The wife takes a child
The child takes a dog (2x) . . .
The dog takes a cat (2x) . . .
The cat takes a rat (2x) . . .
The rat takes the cheese (2x) . . .
The cheese stands alone
The cheese stands alone
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The cheese stands alone
