I'm not a fig plucker

But I'll pluck figs
Till the fig plucker comes

Interesting...

The way I've always heard it is:

I'm not a pheasant plucker, I'm a pheasant plucker's son,
and I'll keep on plucking pheasants 'till the pheasant plucker comes.

(It's not just hard to say, it's almost impossible to type.)

I recall that there was some joky English folk-song with those words in the chorus.  Anyone remember that?

Where were we?
