When you're hungry and you're brittle
And there's little on the griddle
It'll whittle out your middle in time
So you take out your fiddle
And you twiddle up a diddle
And sing a little riddle and rhyme
Little riddle and rhyme for your time on the trail
Little riddle and rhyme for your ride on the rail
Little riddle and rhyme for a tellin' your tale
A little riddle and rhyme
When you peddle for some metal
And you settle on a kettle
That'll level and dishevel your dime
Then leave the nettle for the rebel
And that rebel for the devil
And just bring a little pebble and pine
When you're sittin' on a thistle
And you're sizzlin' some gristle
This'll turn your little drizzle to shine
Have a sarsaparizzle fizzle
Kiss a little in the bristle
And take little whistle'n time
