The Adventures of Young Mr. Riggs pt 1

As Rence has returned from his travels, I'm gonna make up some adventures for him to star in. I can just hear his banjo in the background....

Young Mr. Riggs
Likes wrestling with pigs
And the most he has wrestled is twenty
Singing Hey Nonny-No
It's a Wrestling I Go
And I'm slippin' on cracklin' a plenty.

The pigs were surprised
He was greased to the eyes
As he skidded around in their pen,
Singing Hey Nonny-No
It's a Wrestling I Go
Won't rest till a-hunderd an' ten.

Well Riggs he was brave
and a cheeky young knave
He slapped all the piggies with gusto
Singing Hey Nonny-No
It's a Wrestling I Go
And Oim drinking a glass of Lambrusco.

His fine apple sauce
Was forgotten, of course
It was buried in cobwebs and spiders
Singing Hey Nonny-No
It's a Wrestling I Go
Blow me if I've not made some cider.

Our brave Mr. Riggs
And his knackered out pigs
Went trotting out into the meadow
Singing Hey Nonny-No
We're a-wrestlin' no mo'
But we do like your cider, young fellow.
