The Incredible String Band - Big Ted lyrics

rate me

Big Ted's dead , he was a great old pig

He'd eat most anything, never wore a wig

Now he's gone like snow on the water, good bye

He was getting old so the farmer said

"Sold him to the butcher just to make a little bread"

Now he's gone like snow on the water, don't cry

Ted may be a moo cow next time around

Giving sweet milk to the people in the town

He'll be whatever he will choose on air or sea or ground

The sows are busy with the piglets fine

I'd put them in the forest now if they were mine

cause I know they like acorns and I don't like bacon

Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy

Squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly

Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy

Sham sham sharoo, oh sham sham sharoo

Big Ted's sold and gone

He came into the kitchen while we were away

He took all the rice and he forgot to pay

He´s gone like snow on the water, good bye

He never cared to do the boogaloo dance

All he ever thought about was food and romance

And he's gone like snow on the water, good bye

Ted may be a moo cow next time around

Giving sweet milk to the people in the town

He'll be whatever he will choose on air or sea or ground

The sows are busy with the piglets fine

I'd put them in the forest now if they were mine

cause I know they like acorns and I don't like bacon

Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy

Squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly

Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy

Sham sham sharoo, oh sham sham sharoo

Big Ted's sold and gone
