THERE was a man lived in the moon, lived in the moon, lived in the moon, There was a man lived in the moon, And his name was Aiken Drum; And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle, And he played upon a ladle, And his name was Aiken Drum. And his hat was made of good cream cheese, good cream cheese, good cream cheese, And his hat was made of good cream cheese, And his name was Aiken Drum. And his coat was made of good roast beef, good roast beef, good roast beef, And his coat was made of good roast beef, And his name was Aiken Drum. And his buttons were made of penny loaves, penny loaves, penny loaves, And his buttons were made of penny loaves, And his name was Aiken Drum. His waistcoat was made of crust of pies, crust of pies, crust of pies, His waistcoat was made of crust of pies, And his name was Aiken Drum. His breeches were made of haggis bags, haggis bags, haggis bags, His breeches were made of haggis bags, And his name was Aiken Drum. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A HOLIDAY by LIZETTE WOODWORTH REESE AN ANGLER'S WISH by HENRY VAN DYKE MEMORIES by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH THE 'MONSTRE' BALLOON by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM THE LOST COLORS by MARY A.
