My Tall Silk Hat

(to the tune of "Funiculi, Funicula")

One day, as I was riding on the subway,

My tall silk hat, my tall silk hat.

I laid it on the seat beside me,

My tall silk hat, my tall silk hat.

A big, a-fat-a-lady sat upon it,

My tall silk hat, my tall silk hat.

A big, a-fat-a-lady sat upon it,

My tall silk hat, my tall silk hat.

Christopher Columbo, now what do you think of that,

A big, a-fat-a-lady sat upon it,

My tall silk hat, my tall silk hat.

My hat she broke and that's no joke,

My hat she broke and that's no joke.

Christopher Columbo, now what do you think of that,

My hat, my hat, my hat she smashed.
