Tattle O'Day - Bob Dylan

I buyed me a little dog, color it was brown

I learned him to whistle, sing and dance and run

His legs they were fourteen yards long, his ears they were quite broad

Around the world in half a day and on him I could ride

Sing taddle o day

I buyed me a little bull about four inches high

Everybody feared him that ever heard him cry

When he begins to bellow it made such melodious sound

Till all the walls in London came tumbling to the ground

Sing taddle o day

I buyed me a flock of sheep, I thought they were all wethers

Sometimes they yielded wool, sometimes they yielded feathers

I think mine are the very best sheep for yielding me increase

For every full and change of the moon they bring both lambs and geese

Sing taddle o day

I buyed me a little box about four acres square

I filled it full of guineas and silver so fair

Oh now I’m bound for Turkey, I’ll travel like an ox

In my breeches pocket, I’ll carry my little box

Sing taddle o day

I buyed me a little hen, all speckled gay and fair

I sat her on an oyster shell, she hatched me out a hare

The hare it sprang a handsome horse full fifteen hands high

And him that tells a bigger tale would have to tell a lie

Sing taddle o day
