Lyrics
(Folk song)
Now since we’ve met, let’s merry merry be,
Said the tinker to the cobbler.
So you say “tink” and I’ll say “ker,”
And you say “cob” and I’ll say “ler.”
Said the tinker to the cobbler,
Said the tinker to the cobbler.
The bells, they sing a merry merry song,
Said the tinker to the cobbler.
So you say “sing” and I’ll say “song,”
And you say “ding” and I’ll say “dong.”
Said the tinker to the cobbler,
Said the tinker to the cobbler.
