The Man in the wilderness 
He asked of me 
How many strawberries grow in the salt sea? 
And I answered him, as I thought good 
As many a ship sails in the wood 

The Man in the wilderness 
He asked me, Why 
His hare could swim and his pig could fly? 
And I answered him, as I thought best 
They were both born in a cuckoo's nest 

The Man in the wilderness 
Asked me to tell 
Tell all the sands in the sea and I counted them well 
And with the grain, well, not one more 
I answered him, you go make sure 

Said with the grain, well, not one more 
I answered him, you go make sure 
I answered him, you...you go make sure
