Possum round and possum sweet,
pour some wine while we eat.
Little downy rascal friend,
clambering in my trees again.
tap-tap, rustle, clatter, creak
on feet so swift, and paws so meek.
Top the boughs and make them squeak,
nature's staccato, what a treat.
Possum round and possum sweet,
pour some wine while we eat.
