The Derby Ram

As I was going to Derby all on a market-day, 

I met the finest ram, sir, that ever was fed upon hay; 

Upon hay, upon hay, upon hay; 

I met the finest ram, sir, that ever was fed upon 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 that grew on his head, 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 up to the sky. 

The tail that grew from his back, sir, was six yards and an ell; 

And it was sent to Derby to toll the market bell; 

The bell, the bell, the bell; 

And it was sent to Derby to toll the market bell.
