As I Was Going to Market
 
As I was going to market upon a market day,
I met the finest ram, sir, that ever fed on hay,
On hay, on hay, on hay--
I met the finest ram, sir, that ever fed on hay.
....
This ram was fat behind, sir; this ram was fat before;
This ram was ten yards round, sir; indeed he was no
more.
No more, no more, no more--
This ram was ten yards round, sir indeed he was no
more.
....
The horns grew on his head, sir, they were so wondrous
high,
As I've been plainly told, sir, they reached up to the sky,
The sky, the sky, the sky--
As I've been plainly told, sir, they reached to the sky,
....
The tail grew on his back, sir, was six yards and an ell,
And it was sent to market to toll the market bell,
The bell, the bell, the bell--
And it was sent to market to toll the market bell.
