Answer 3

Not sure what you mean by "what's this song", but if you are asking what it says, here goes:

"Mares eat Oats
and Does eat Oats
and Little Lambs eat Ivey -
a Kid will eat Ivey too - wouldn't You?

Say it fast, and you have:

"Mairsy dotes and dosey dotes and little lambsy divey, a kiddleat ivey too, wooden shoe?"

I am NOT making this up!

Answer 5

It's from a song written by Milton Drake, Al Hoffman, and Jerry Livingston. It was originally a nursery rhyme.

Mares eat oats and does eat oats,
And little lambs eat ivy,
A kid will eat ivy too,
Wouldn't you?

Sung quicky, it sounds like this:

Maresy-doats and dozy-doats,
And liddle lamzy divey,
A kiddley divey too,
Wooden choo?

Answer 6

It's Mares eat oats and goats eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
A kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you ooo? A kid will eat ivy too wouldn't you. If the words sound queer and funny to your ears a little bit jumbled and jivy, sing Mares eat oats and goats eat oats and little lambs eat ivy......... This is the way I remember singing it when I was a little girl in the 40's.

Answer 7

I remember an old song which was a play on words. Is it
Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. Kids'll eat ivy too, won't you? Or am I cracking up!

Answer 8

Mares eat oates and Does eat oats and Little Lambs eat ivy. I believe it is from the Disney movie Mary Poppins. I don't know the name of the song though.
