1: "Oh what have you got for dinner, Mrs Bond?"
"There's beef in the larder and ducks on the pond.
Crying dilly, dilly, dilly, dilly, come to be killed.
For you must be stuffed and my customers filled"
2: "John Ostler, go fetch me a duckling or two.
John Ostler, go fetch me a ducking or two.
Crying dilly, dilly, dilly, dilly, come to be killed.
For you must be stuffed and my customers filled"
3: "I have been to the ducks that are swimming on the pond,
And they won't come to be killed, Mrs Bond.
I cried dilly, dilly, dilly, dilly, come and be killed.
For you must be stuffed and the customers filled.
4: Mrs Bond she went down to the pond in a rage,
with her apron full of onions and her pocket full of sage.
She cried "Come little wag-tails, come and be killed.
For you must be stuffed and my customers filled."
