So off he set with his opera hat Heigh ho! says Rowley And on the way he met with a rat With a rowley, powley, gammon and spinach Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mister Rat, will you go with me? Heigh ho! says Rowley Kind Mistress Mousey for to see? With a rowley, powley, gammon and spinach Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. They came to the door of Mousey's hall Heigh ho! says Rowley They gave a loud knock and they gave a loud call With a rowley, powley, gammon and spinach Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mistress Mouse, will you give us some beer? Heigh ho! says Rowley For Froggy and I are fond of good cheer With a rowley, powley, gammon and spinach Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. But while they were all a merry-making Heigh ho! says Rowley A cat and her kittens came tumbling in With a rowley, powley, gammon and spinach Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley.
