There once was a sow who had three little piggies,
Three little piggies had she,
And the old sow always went "oink, oink, oink,"

And the piggies went "whee, whee, whee."
Now one day one of these three little piggies
Said to his brothers, said he,

"Why don't we always go 'oink, oink, oink,'
It's so childish to go 'whee, whee, whee.'"
Now these three little piggies grew skinny and lean,

And skinny they well might be,
For they always tried to go "oink, oink, oink,"
When they should have gone "whee, whee, whee."

And these three piggies they up and they died,
A very sad sight to see,
So don't ever try to go "oink, oink, oink,"

When you ought to go "whee, whee, whee."
