I once knew a lady
A little old lady
Before I started to grow.
She'd tea every Sunday
Was up on a Monday
Though she had no place to go.
And her name was
Tabatha Twitchit is it right
What I'm telling you now.
Yes her name was
Tabatha Twitchit is it right
Yes, it is cause I know.
She had a friend who
We both used to talk to
Anton the great was his name.
And she could depend on
Her great little Anton
Whose picture she hung in her frame.
And he loved miss
Tabatha Twitchit is it right
What I'm telling you now.
Yes he loved miss
Tabatha Twitchit is it right
Yes, it is cause I know.
Old fashioned lace
Around the face of the lady.
Old fashioned grace
She meant the world to me.
I once knew a lady
A sweet little lady
But then I started to grow.
We cried on a Sunday
I left on a Monday
Where she is now I don't know.
So I lost my
Tabatha Twitchit is it right
What I'm telling you now.
Yes I lost my
Tabatha Twitchit is it right
Yes it is cause I know.
