Who Killed 'Er (Who Killed the Black Widder)

Who killed 'er?
Who killed the black widder?
Who took a broom and a fryin' pan
And hit her on the head and took it on the lam?
Who killed 'er?
Who killed the black widder?
Who beat her up till she was dead
And left poor me in jam?

You see, I'm a district attorney,
A very intelligent mouse
How could that villain escape me
When I was right here in her house?

Who killed 'er?
Who killed the black widder?
Who threw her out in the garbage can
Left without a clue?
Well, I'm thinkin' to believe it was you!

Who killed 'er?
Who killed the black widder?
Who took a broom to her spider web
Pulled her by the hair right outta her bed?
Who killed 'er?
Who killed the black widder?
Who beat her up with a kitchen chair
Hid her body and fled?

Well, I just got a confession
The butler told me the deal
I caught him in the pantry
With a bloodstain on his heel!

He killed 'er! He
killed the black widder!
He told me she'd 'a' poisoned him
But he got her instead!
So, case is dismissed, it's self defence
And I'm mighty glad she's dead!
