Lonnie Lumpkin

There was a thief, name of Lonnie Lumpkin
Accused of stealing a thousand pumpkins
   He put them in trees
   They stank in the breeze
Wud-ja expect from a Count-Tree Bumpkin

The Count-Tree Bumpkin named Lonnie Lumpkin - Had passion for stealing lots of pumpkin - When he hid them in trees - The boughs bowed to their knees - And the pumpkin got eaten by munchkin…… Belle
