"Mares eat oats, and does eat oats, ..."
Laurence A. Moore
Does anyone know where on the Web I could find the nursery rhyme
/ children's song, that starts off:
"Mares eat oats, and does eat oats, and little lambs eat ivy."?
Any information about the rhyme / song would be appreciated.

I don't know where to find it, but if I remember correctly my Dad used to
sing:
Mares eat oats and Does eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy
A kid will eat ivy too
Wouldn't you?

Mares eat oats, and does eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too
Wouldn't you?
Now if these words sound
Unfamiliar to your ear
Let's try them once again
And see if you can hear. . .
(repeat first verse)
The whole point of this song is that the words are all slurred together,
so that it sounds like "maresy doats, and doesy doats, and little lambsy
divey." Hope that helps.

This song was recorded by Bing Crosby. I'm sure it's on one of his
"Greatest Hits" collections.

And then you repeat the verse, and follow it with the
following:
It may sound queer
And funny to your ear
A little bit jumbled and jivey
Just sing
Mares eat oats, and does eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy
(enunciate the last two lines clearly)
Mareseatoats and doeseatoats
Andlittlelambseativy
A kid'lleativytoo
Wouldn't you?
You sing the first three lines real mushed together for the
effect. There was another verse that went
Whales eat snails
And snails eat eels
And little eels eat oysters
A kid'll eat oysters too
Wouldn't you?
But it does not work as well.
Marvin Marshall

The correct lyrics are as follows:
Oh, Mares eat oats, and does eat oats,
And little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?
If the words sound queer
And funny to your ear,
Just a little bit jumbledy-jivey
Just say "mares eat oats"
And "Does eat oats"
And little lambs eat Ivy,
Then repeat the chorus.
