Off he went in his opera hat, a-huh

And on his way he met a rat, a-huh, a-huh, a-huh
Well he rode on down to Miss Mousie's door, a-huh

Where he had been so many times before, a-huh, a-huh, a-huh

All through the woods the music rang, a-huh, a-huh, a-huh
"Well, what will the wedding breakfast be?" a-huh

And if you want any more, you can sing it yourself," a-huh, a-huh, a-huh
A-huh, a-huh, a-huh
