On the other hand - if we were talking about Mr. Ivy ~ wellll

[CottonBear]

3. I would not eat ivy, however, my mare eats whole oats and I've tried them!

Tasty! I try (a little bit) of all of her food: whole oats, flax seed, Timothy Hay, Coastal Bermuda Hay, soaked beet pulp and Grow'nWin (feed with vitamins and mineral for horses fed on bermuda grass.)

I hate English Ivy. It is an invasive plant here in the Southeast.

"Mares Eat Oats" is a nursery rhyme.



Lyrics

Mares Eat Oats Words and Music by Milton Drake, Al Hoffman and Jerry Livingston. This song was produced in Al Trace's 1944 record.

Mares-eat oats and does eat oats,
And little lambs eat ivy,
A kid will eat ivy too,
Wouldn't you?


Sung quicky, it sounds like this:

Maresy-doats and dozy-doats,
And liddle lamzy divey,
A kiddley divey too,
Wouldn't you-oo?

Deranged punk.
