VERSE 1
I had a cow that give such milk
Dressed her in th finest silk
Feed 'er on oats an' hay
Milk her forty times a day

Haw, haw, haw, hee, hee, hee
Little Brown jug, I love thee

I bought a cow from Farmer Jones
She was nothin' but skin an' bones
I fed her up on finest silk
She jumped th fence an' strained 'er milk
