The Caribbean version :-
DeleteThree little boys were playing
Playing in a ditch
One jump on the others back
And call him a son-of-a-...
Bison had a dog
A very good dog was he
He lent him to a lady
To keep her company
She fed it and she trained it
And taught it how to jump
It jumped up on her petticoat
And bite her on she .....
Country girls, country boys
Sitting on a rock
Along came a bumblebee
And stung one on his .....
Cocktails ginger ales
10 cents a glass
If you don’t like that
You can kiss my hairy .....
Ask me no questions
You will hear no lies
Put down molasses
And it will catch no flies ..

This is almost exactly the way I remember hearing it as a lad. I've always thought Peter's (Murphy or Piper) ladyfriend should have taught the dog how to hunt, tho', rather than jump - it's a better rhyme...
ReplyDeleteAhh, I remember this ditty from when I was just a wee lad, but my version was Three irish men three irish men diggin in a ditch, one said to another you dirty son of a peter murphy, peter Murphy had a dog what a dog was he, he gave it to his girlfriend to keep her company, it crawled up her petticoat and bit her on her country boy sitting on rock, along came a bumble bee and stung him on his cocktail gingerale 5 cents a glass, tell me no stories, I'll tell you no lies, if you get his with a bucket of shit be sure to close your eyes. I'm sure others have different versions as well.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I knew this song as "Three Frenchmen". But the rest of the song is pretty spot on, with some improvements, no less. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteI was taught this version;
ReplyDeleteThree Irish men, three Irish men digging in a ditch one called the other a dirty son of a pitch me out the window landed on a rock along came a bumblebee and stung me on my cocktail ginger ale five cents a glass if you don't like it stick it up your ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies corned beef and cabbage keeps away the flies.
