Song Lyrics

Hey diddle diddle

The cat and the fiddle

The cow jumped over the moon

The little dog laughed to see such fun

And the dish ran away with the spoon.


It’s a crazy fairy tale about the moon

With a cat and a fiddle and a little silver spoon

That ran away with a dish

It all happened so soon

And a dog that laughed it’s strange but true


It’s a crazy crazy crazy little song

It’s a crazy crazy crazy little song


They chased through the clouds, a whirlwind of fur,

The cat with his fiddle, the spoon in a blur

The dog’s belly aching from laughter's delight,

sung out to the stars, what a glorious sight

They climbed on a comet, its tail a bright streak

they flew past the planets at a blistering speed

The moon, a giant cheese, hung low in the sky,

And the cat, with a grin, winked a mischievous eye.


It’s a crazy crazy crazy little song

It’s a crazy crazy crazy little song


He scraped on his fiddle, a jig full of glee,

As the spoon, like a dancer, spun light on the sea.

The dog, singing tunes, joined a cosmic ballet,

A symphony of wonder, a celestial display.


It’s a crazy crazy crazy little song

It’s a crazy crazy crazy little song


Hey diddle diddle

The cat and the fiddle

The cow jumped over the moon

The little boy laughed to see such fun

And the dish ran away with the spoon.
