Johnny went to my house and stole a leg of lamb
Anyone know the rest of this? My grandpa sang it when I was a kid in the '50's.
Hi,
The closest I can find is this. It's called "Taffy Was A Welshman". Hope it helps you in some way.

Taffy was a Welshman
Taffy was a thief
Taffy came to my house
And stole a leg of beef
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy was in bed
I picked up the leg of beef
And hit him on the head
Taffy was a Welshman
Taffy was a thief
Taffy came to my house
And stole a piece of beef
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy wasn't home
Taffy came to my house
And stole a marrow bone
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy was not in
Taffy came to my house
And stole a rolling-pin
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy was in bed
I took up a poker
And flung it at his head
Taffy was a Welshman
Taffy was a thief
Taffy came to my house
And stole a piece of beef
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy wasn't in
I jumped upon his Sunday hat
And poked it with a pin
Taffy was a Welshman
Taffy was a sham
Taffy came to my house
And stole a leg of lamb
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy was away
I stuffed his socks with sawdust
And filled his shoes with clay
Taffy was a Welshman
Taffy was a cheat
Taffy came to my house
And stole a piece of meat
I went to Taffy's house
Taffy was not there
I hung his coat and trousers
To roast before a fire
