Lyrics
Chorus
“I played horsie down the street
With my broom, down the street
When somebody moved the street
I faw down an’ go boom
I got right up on my horse
Broom of course, was my horse
When somebody moved my horse
I faw down an’ go boom
I cried an’ cried an’ ran home to Ma
It’s all right now
But how that certain place was hurtin’
Mother put me straight to bed
Straight to bed, oh! my head
In my dreams they moved the bed
I faw down an’ go boom”
Chorus
“I took sweetie out to dine
Out to dine, she said “fine”
When she ordered up some wine
I faw down an’ go boom
Then I asked my pretty miss
Pretty miss, for a kiss
With a bang she said, “take this”
I faw down an’ go boom
I cried an’ cried an’ said, “I love you”
She laughed an’ laughed
An’ said “no jokin’, you’re provokin’
We got home to my surprise
My surprise, she told lies
Hubby hit me ‘tween the eyes
I faw down an’ go boom”
