There’s a dozen rat holes in the yard, dear Liza, dear Liza.
There’s a dozen rat holes in the yard, dear Liza
A dozen holes.Then fill them dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry

With what shall I fill them, dear Liza, dear Liza

With dirt, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry.
With dirt, dear Henry, dear Henry, some dirt.

The dirt cannot fill them dear Liza, dear Liza

What if they aren’t strong enough, dear Liza, dear Liza
What if they aren’t strong enough, dear Liza, not strong?

Get a digger, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry.

As long as they’re rat-free, dear Henry, dear Henry
As long as they’re rat-free, I really don’t care.
