On Top of Mount Wooly
On top of Mount Wooly
All covered with sheep
I lost my sock needle
Getting out of my Jeep
*
It rolled off my lap
And onto the floor
And then my poor needle
Rolled right out the door
*
It rolled to the pasture
And under a fence
Then under the hooves
Of a ruminant defense
*
I howled in frustration
I stamped and I stormed
Then I ran from the ruminants
So I wouldn’t get horned
*
I went back to the car
And took up my sock
With only four needles
I could still make it work [Brooklyn accent here]
*
Driving away from Mount Wooly
I began to regroup
And vowed that next time
I’d try Magic Loop
