The Merrily Song

The Merrily Song is a song in the Wind in the Willows segment in The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, sung by J. Thaddeus Toad and Cyril Proudbottom while going around the countryside in the canary colored gypsy cart. This song is also the theme for the Mr. Toad's Wild Ride attraction.

Lyrics
J. Thaddeus Toad:


 * Tally Ho! Tally Ho! Tally Ho!
 * Are we on our way to Nottingham,
 * To Brittingham, to Buckingham
 * Or any hammy hamlet by the sea? NO!

Cyril Proudbottom:


 * Are we on our way to 'Devonshire', to 'Lancashire' or
 * Worcestershire, I’m not so sure we’ll have to wait and see!
 * Mr. Toad: Oh, are we on our way to 'Dover', or going merrily over,
 * the jolly road that goes to 'Plymouth' Ho!

J. Thaddeus Toad and Cyril Proudbottom:


 * NO! We’re merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
 * merrily on our way to nowhere in particular.
 * We’re merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
 * merrily on our way where the roads are perpendicular.

Cyril Proudbottom:


 * We’re always in a hurry.

J. Thaddeus Toad:


 * We have no time to stall.

J. Thaddeus Toad and Cyril Proudbottom:


 * We’ve got to be there, we’ve got to be there,
 * but where we can’t recall.


 * Whoo! We’re merrily, merrily, merrily,
 * merrily, merrily on our way, and we may
 * be going to Devonshire to Lancashire to Worcestershire.
 * We’re not so sure, but what do we care, we’re only sure we got to be THERE!
 * We’re merrily on our way to nowhere at all!
