Hey Diddle Diddle (Full Audio and 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, the spoon,
The dish ran away with the spoon.

Background notes
Another favourite nursery and nonsense rhyme. Don't take it too serious but mind the tasteful "folky" arrangement featuring our fiddle player Mat Williams. If you like the style check out Mats folk album, featuring traditional English Folk and listen to our free audio samples, including lyrics and commentaries to every song.
