Where the early pumpkins blow,
In the middle of the woods
Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.

One old jug without a handle,
These were all his worldly goods:
In the middle of the woods,”

The morning air is all awash with angels.
Some are in bed-sheets, some are in blouses,
Some are in smocks: but truly there they are.”
