I build my house of straw
I build my house of hay
I toot my flute
I don't give a hoot
And play around all day
I build my house of sticks
I build my house of twigs
With a hey-diddle-diddle
I play on my fiddle
And dance all kinds of jigs
I build my house of stone
I build my house of bricks
I have no chance
To sing and dance
'Cause work and play don't mix
