about

Traditional, adapted by Red Yarn

lyrics

Oh, Molly Cottontail
At night when the moon is pale
You don’t have to turn your tail
Always give me leg bail

Molly in the bramble-brier
Let me get a little nigher
Prickly-pear, it stings like fire
Do please come pick out the brier

Molly in the pale moonlight
Your tail is sure a pretty white
You take it far way outta sight
Molly, Molly, Molly, Molly, Molly Bright

Oh Molly Cottontail
You sits up on a rotten rail
You tear right through that graveyard, hare
Make them ugly haunts all wail

Oh, Molly Cottontail,
Won’t you be sure not to fail
To give me your right hind foot, babe
My luck it won’t be for sale

Ain’t there somebody gonna dance with little Molly…

Everybody wiggle your cottontail…
