I saw a mouse

There was an old song to this tune, what were the words to it? It had the line 'a little mouse with boots on" so it was probably in line with the times.
Thanks

    I think the words were changed to make it into a Charlton song from the 70s, probably would've been a hoolie type

    Remember it well, mate !

    Others in a similar vein : "I'm a blue toothbrush, you're a pink toothbrush " and " Gilly gilly ossen feffer etc " - both Max Bygraves ?

    Don't write songs like that anymore...

    thank goodness !

    who could forget that one .. or was it ossenFFeFer ? .. as Max would have said: Let me tell you a little story .. a British Lions rugby match in S Africa many years ago when games were refereed by local officials .. one game the referee was Mr Cassanella - Bogan .. that is one of those stupid things that has stuck in my mind for a LONG time. It must be a good old fashioned Dutch name
