There was a man in our town,

-6  -6 -6   -6  -7    8
and he was wond'rous wise.

-7  -6   -7 7 -6  5  5    5
He jump'd into a bramble bush,

 8      8     -8   7   -7  -6
and scratch'd out both his eyes.

-7   7   7   -6    8  -8    -8  -8
And when he found his eyes were out,

-7    7   7    7    8   -8

-7   7    7 7  8 -8 8   -8

and scratch'd them in again.
