The man in the wilderness
He asked of me
How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?
I answered him, as I thought good
As many a ship sails in the wood

The man in the wilderness
He asked me, Why
His hare could swim and his pig could fly?
I answered him, as I thought best
They were both born in a cuckoo's nest

The man in the wilderness
Asked me to tell
All the sands in the sea and I counted them well
And with the grain, well, not one more
I answered him, You go make sure

Said with the grain, well, not one more
I answered him, You go make sure
