Old Old Brown
Old Brown the clown
Walked up and down
Our little town
Bearing a frown
He got around
The palace ground
And lost his frown.
His funny sounds
Had King Loccoun
Dropping his crown
Words went round town
That old, old Brown
Did really clowned
Great King Loccoun.
The king got round
And drown old Brown
From that day down,
The town hadn't found
A man or clown
Who frowns yet clowns
Like old, old Brown.
