The river was dark and muddy
And the moon was on the rise
And all of the creatures in the swampland
Had woke up to feed for the night

Roosevelt and Ira Lee were sitting there on a log
Ira Lee turned to Roosevelt and said
"I'd sure like to have a mess of bull frog"
He said: "Yeah, yeah, sure it taste good"

So they slipped on their rubber boots
And walked down to the water edge
And right away they knew that the night would be a bummer
'Cause Ira Lee stepped on a water mossacin 
He said: "Ugh! Ugh! Somebody help me!"

Ira Lee turned to Roosevelt when he quit his screaming and kicking
And he said, "Let's forget about those bullfrog legs
And go out and steal us some chickens"
Ol' Roosevelt said, "Yeah, yeah, baby, it sure would taste good"
