There was an Owl lived in an Oak is an old poem or rhyme possibly originating in the USA. Possibly because of the second verse a newer version of the rhyme has been developed which you can view here called A Wise Old Owl.
However, we found a very folky and sweet version sung and performed by Dany Rosevear of this original Owl rhyme which you can view below!

These original lyrics are all that appropriate for today, so take a look at the reviewed lyrics below!
There was an Owl lived in an oak.
Whiskey, whaskey, weedle!
And all the words he ever spoke,
Were fiddle, faddle, feedle!
A Gunner chanced to come that road,
Whiskey, whaskey, weedle!
Says he, “I’ll shoot you, Silly Bird!
So fiddle, faddle, feedle!”

There was an Owl lived in an oak
Whiskey, whaskey, weedle!
And all the words he ever spoke,
Were, “Fiddle, faddle, feedle!”
One day I walked along that road,
Whiskey, whaskey, weedle!
And there I heard an ugly toad Sing,
“Fiddle, faddle, feedle!”
