[ A ] On top of [ D ] spaghetti all covered in [ A ] cheese,
I lost my poor [ E ] meatball when somebody [ A ] sneezed.

[ A ] It rolled off the [ D ] table and on to the [ A ] floor,
And then my poor [ E ] meatball rolled out of the [ A ] door.

[ A ] It rolled up the [ D ] garden and under a [ A ] bush,
And then my poor [ E ] meatball was nothing but [ A ] mush.
