Tattle O'Day - Unreleased, Self Portrait
Lyrics
I buyed me a little dog, color it was brown I learned him how to whistle, sing and dance and run His legs they were 14 yards long, his ears they were quite broad Around the world in a half a day and on him I could ride Sing tattle 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 'Til all the walls in London town came tumbling to the ground Sing tattle 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 tattle 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 And in my breeches pocket, I'll carry my little box Sing tattle 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 tattle o'day
