I want to tell you a story 
About a little man 
If I can. 
A gnome named Grimble Crumble. 
And little gnomes stay in their homes. 
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine. 

He wore a scarlet tunic, 
A blue green hood, 
It looked quite good. 
He had a big adventure 
Amidst the grass 
Fresh air at last. 
Wining, dining, biding his time. 
And then one day - hooray! 
Another way for gnomes to say 
Oooooooooomray. 

Look at the sky, look at the river 
Isn't it good? 
Look at the sky, look at the river 
Isn't it good? 
Winding, finding places to go. 
And then one day - hooray! 
Another way for gnomes to say 
Oooooooooomray. 
Ooooooooooooooomray.
