Worn and gnawn
A little hole
Just a small hole
Letting in a sick wind
In small puffs


Yo-ho hole
Yo-ho hole
Through which blow
A small sick wind
Yo-ho hole
Yo-ho-hole
Puff puff
The sick wind blows


Slupping stitches leading to so slight a hole
Slipping in a sick wind
Slippery sickly wind


Yo-ho-hole
Yo-ho-hole
Across the threshole
A little sick wind
Yo-ho-hole
Yo-ho-hole
Yo-ho
The sick wind blows
