3. The tune the old cow died of ??

There was an old man, and he had an old cow,
But no fodder had he to give her;
So he took up his fiddle and played her this tune�
�Consider, good cow, consider;
This isn�t the time for grass to grow,
Consider, good cow, consider.�

Not what I'd call familiar, but can't think of anything better !
