Verse 1:
I once had a pig that loved me
And lived in a shed in the country
In a middle cla** district of Dunfries
But a sad kind of pig was he
CHORUS:
Pigs can't swim and Pigs can't fly
But pigs can see the wind go by
Pigs make lovely household friends
When winter comes and summer ends
Early in the morning
So early in the morning
So early in the morning
Before the break of day
Verse 2:
Each week that lofty beside
Would beg with eyes so misty
To take him over the England
His life dreams to fulfil
CHORUS
Verse 3:
He'd plunge into the channel
Swim to France would be his gamble
Florence Chadwick couldn't hold a candle
To such a darling Pig as he
CHORUS
Verse 4:
"Are you tired of me?" I asked him
"Will our friendship not be lastin'?"
But he told me I was graspin'
And he needed to be free
CHORUS
Verse 5:
"So will you take me there tomorrow?"
"In a pig's eye," I said with sorrow
So he drowned himself in the bathtub
Naughty boy, and I had pork chops for my tea
CHORUS
