Hippity Hop

A rabbit named Hippity Hop
Hopped over the mountain top
Went down to the village to shop
For a very fine lollipop

Old McGinty the traffic cop
On his way to the coffee shop
Screeched to a sudden stop
Missed jay-walking Hippity Hop

"It would be worse than a bippity-bop"
Said McGinty the traffic cop,
"If I hadn't been able to stop"

"But I'm going to the coffee shop
And the charges I'm willing to drop
Won't you join me for a soda pop"

"Most certainly," said Hippity Hop
"That sounds better than a bippity bop"

And friendship grew in the coffee shop
Between officer McGinty and Hippity Hop
