there was a crooked man
who walked a crooked mile
down a crooked path
across a crooked stile
took a crooked wife
built a crooked house
and forever after,
lived a crooked life?


Just for completeness' sake -- the version I grew up with went

"There was a crooked man
Who walked a crooked mile.
He found a crooked sixpence
Upon a crooked stile.
He had a crooked cat
Which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together
In a little crooked house."
