When all the cows are sleeping,

And the sun has gone to bed.

And this is what he says,

“I‟m a dingle dangle scarecrow

With a flippy floppy hat,

I can shake my arms like this

And shake my feet like that.”

When all the hens are roosting,

And the moon‟s behind a cloud.

Up jumps the scarecrow,

And shouted very loud,

“I‟m a dingle, dangle scarecrow

With a flippy floppy hat,

I can shake my arms like this

And shake my feet like that
