Old Doctor Wango Tango - Burl Ives

Old Doctor Wango Tango, had a long red nose

Oh, Old Doctor Wango Tango always wore green clothes

And Old Doctor Wango Tango lived by himself all alone

When he went out to ride, he sat astride

Of a steed all skin and bone, bone, bone

Of a steed all skin and bone

Old Doctor Wango Tango had a dog and a cat also

Old Doctor Wango Tango had a tamed black crow

And Old Doctor Wango Tango called his thin horse, Sam

His dog’s name was Towser, and his cat’s name was Mouser

And the crow’s name was Flippity Flam, Flam, Flam

And the crow’s name was Flippity Flam

Old Doctor Wango Tango, lived on a biscuit a day

Old Doctor Wango Tango got very light this way

And Old Doctor Wango Tango, gave his animals nothing to eat

Though it sometimes came to pass, that they found a little grass

Or a crust or a bone without meat meat meat

Or a crust or a bone without meat

Old Doctor Wango Tango, rode to the top of a hill

And Old Doctor Wango Tango found the wind very high and chill

Away blew Old Doctor Tango

Away blew his thin horse Sam

Away blew Towser, and away blew Mouser

And the black crow Flippity Flam Flam Flam

And the black crow Flippity Flam
