Lyrics
(French folk tune, Lyrics by Carolyn Sherwin Bailey)
Said the city to the country mouse,
“Pray come with me and dine,
I have cake and cheese and bacon
In my pantry large and fine.”
As they nibbled at the feast,
In crept Kitty through the door.
“To the barn,” said Farmer Mousie,
“I will never leave it more.”
