Judy Collins Little Brown Dog song lyrics

I buyed me a little dog, its color, it was brown

Taught him to whistle, to sing and dance and run

His legs, they were fourteen yards long

His ears, they were broad

'Round the world in half a day on him I could ride

Sing terry o' day

I buyed me a little bull, he was four inches high

Everybody feared him, whoever heard him cry

When he began to bellow he made such melodious sound

That all the walls in London came tumblin' to the ground

Sing terry o' day

Sing tattle a-day

I buyed me a flock of sheep, thought they were all wethers

Sometimes they yielded wool, sometimes yielded feathers

I know mine are the very best sheep for yield and increase

Every full and turn of the moon they bring forth lambs and geese

Sing terry o' day

Sing tattle a-day

I buyed me a little glass, colored it was green

In it were all the wonders man has ever seen

I put it in my pocket, tied up with a cloth

Cried and cried the day, I found that it had been lost

Sing terry o' day

Sing tattle a-day

I buyed me a little dog, its color, it was brown

Taught him to whistle, to sing and dance and run

His legs, they were fourteen yards long

His ears, they were broad

'Round the world in half a day on him I could ride

Sing terry o' day

Sing terry o' day
