Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly

I know an old lady who swallowed a fly
I don't know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she'll cry

I know an old lady who swallowed a spider
And wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she'll cry

I know an old lady who swallowed a bird
How absurd, she swallowed a bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
And wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she'll cry (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
Perhaps she'll cry (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)

I know an old lady who swallowed a cat
Fancy that she swallowed a cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
And wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she'll cry

I know an old lady who swallowed a dog
What a hog, she swallowed a dog
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
And wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she'll cry

I know an old lady who swallowed a goat
She opened her throat and swallowed a goat
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
And wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she'll cry

I know an old lady who swallowed a cow
I don't know how but she swallowed a cow
She swallowed the cow to catch the dog
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird

She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
And wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly
Perhaps she'll cry

There was an old lady who swallowed a horse
I'm joking of course, of course
