Looky there, there were three jolly hunters
A -huntin' one fine day -ish
Nothin' did they spy
but a lighthouse in the way
Looky there, one says,
it's a lighthouse
The second, he says, nay
The third says, it's a steeple
With the church blown clear away
Looky there,
so they hunted and they hallowed
And nothin' could they find
With the moon up in the heavens
And nothin' left behind
Looky there!
One says it's the moon,
but the second he snayed.
The third says it's a holland cheese,
with the one half cut away.
Looky there!
So they hunted and they hallowed,
and nothing could they find,
but a bullfrog in a millpond,
and that they left behind.
Looky there!
One says it's a bullfrog,
the second he snayed.
The third says it's a nightingale,
But with the feathers shaved away,
looky there!
So they hunted and they hallowed,
nothing could they find
But a partridge in a pear tree,
and that they left behind, looky there!
One says it'd be a partridge,
the second he says nay
The third says it's a rabbit,
with the ears shot clean away,
looky there!
So they hunted and they hallowed,
and nothing could they find
But an owl in an owl tree
and that they left behind
Lucky there
The first says, it's an owl
The second he says, nay
The third says, it's the devil
And they're running to this day
Lucky there
Lucky there
Lucky there
Lucky there
Lucky there
Lucky there you
