Froggy went a wooing-o….

I knew the title but I had no idea what it was about.  Turns out it's a children's nursery rhyme.


A frog he would a-wooing go,
Heigh ho! says Rowley,
A frog he would a-wooing go,
Whether his mother would let him or no.
With a rowley, powley*, gammon, and spinach,
Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley.
