Lyrics
The Sleepy Hollow Hog Stompers performed a fairly short version of the song in 1962. The lyrics from their performance of the song were as follows; Three me went a-hunting, And something they did find, They came across a porcupine, And that they left behind, Irishman said it's a porcupine, Scotsman he said nay, Welshman said it's a pin cushion, With the pins stuck in the wrong way. Three me went a-hunting, And something they did find, They came across a toad-frog, And that they left behind, Irishman said it's a toad-frog, Scotsman he said nay, Welshman said it's a jay bird, With the feathers blown away. Three me went a-hunting, And something they did find, They came across a (faucet?), And that they left behind, Irishman said it's a (faucet?), Scotsman he said nay, Welshman said it's the end of the world, Let's go back the other way.
