with the [Pied Pipers},



I overheard the strangest talk right here beside me on the walk,

A little boy and girl of three, here's how it sounded to me:

Dai dut the denny in a dum-dot, dai dut the denny in a dum-dot

Do det the daper and dai det the dum, cause dai dut the denny in the dum-dot.

[What's you say?]

I put the penny in the gum-slot, I put the penny in the gum-slot,

You get the paper and I get the gum, 'cause I put the penny in the gum-slot.

[Eeny meeny minee mo, turn the handle, let it go,]

[Peppermint flavor yummy yum, I got the penny and I get the gum,]

['Cause dai dut the denny in the dum-dot,] I put the penny in the gum-slot.

Do det the daper and dai det the dum

Cause dai dut the denny in the dum-dot.



[Dai dut the denny in the dum-dot, dai dut the denny in the dum-dot.]

[You get the paper and I get the gum, Dai dut the denny in the dum-dot.]

[Put penny in a penny machine, not carin' if it's yellow or green,]

[I'm gonna chew, won't give it to you, (won't?) you know what I mean.]



Tol' the girlie, an' tol' the lad, if you quarrel, I'll be sad.

Made it fair for everyone, gave them the paper and I kept the gum.

[Dai, dai dut the denny in the dum-dot,] I put the penny in the gum-slot.
