A Voyage

The Horse and the Tiger,

The Ape and the Goat,

Decided one morning,

To hire a boat.

 

To leave their own country,

And find a new one,

Very much in the manner,

Columbus had done.

 

The boat went a-sailing,

Away and away,

It sailed and they sailed,

For a night and a day.

 

When all of a sudden,

There blew a great gale,

The Horse was a-tremble,

The Tiger grew pale.

 

The Ape and the Goat,

Nearly fainted together,

But the boat went a-sailing,

In spite of bad weather.

 

A-sailing, a-sailing,

A-sailing it goes,

To a wonderful country,

Which nobody knows.

 

The Horse and the Tiger,

The Ape and the Goat,

Has found a new one,

As Columbus had done.
