Triple story about Nemo Solomon Grundy

Solomon Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Grew worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday.
That was the end of
Solomon Grundy.


Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
Christened on a stark and stormy Tuesday,
Married on a gray and grisly Wednesday,
Took ill on a mild and mellow Thursday,
Grew worse on a bright and breezy Friday,
Died on a gay and glorious Saturday,
Buried on a baking, blistering Sunday.
That was the end of Solomon Grundy.


Solomon Grundy born on Monday,
Went to school on Tuesday,
Grew a beard on Wednesday,
Expelled on Thursday,
Protested on Friday,
Arrested on Saturday,
Drafted on Sunday;
And this was the end of Solomon Grundy.


WHEN I FIRST CAME TO THIS LAND

When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man
So I got myself a shack, I did what I could
And I called my shack, "Break my back"
But the land was sweet and good, I did what I could

When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man,
So I got myself a farm, I did what I could
And I called my farm, "Muscle in my arm"
And I called my shack, "Break my back"
But the land was sweet and good, I did what I could

similarly:

cow, "No milk now"
duck, "Out of luck"
donkey, "Horse gone Wonky"
wife, "Run for your life"
son, "My work done"

OL’ DAN TUCKER

1. Ol’ Dan Tucker was a mighty man
Washed his face in a frying pan
Combed his hair with a wagon wheel
Had a toothpick in his heel

(Chorus)
Now get out the way, Ol’ Dan Tucker
Get out the way Ol’ Dan Tucker
Get out the way Ol’ Dan Tucker
You’re too late to get your supper


2. Ol’ Dan Tucker, he went to town
Into the barbershop and sat right down
That barber he did a really fine job
And when he was done Dan Tucker was bald (Chorus)

3. Ol’ Dan Tucker took his fishing bait
A rod and a hook and a dozen mates
They built a fire with red-hot coals
And put marshmallows on their fishing poles (Chorus)

4. Ol’ Dan Tucker he saw a ghost
Sitting at the table eating jam and toast
Ol’ Dan Tucker, he got scared
And ran through the house in his underwear (Chorus)
