Hey Diddle Diddle is an English Nursery Rhyme that has a sing song lyric:

Hey diddle diddle,
The Cat and the Fiddle,
The Cow jump'd over the Moon.
The little dog laugh'd to see such a sight,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Lori Mitchell shows the smiling cat playing the fiddle. The Cat and the Fiddle are part of a nursery rhyme that has origins dating back over a 1,000 years.
