Nobody Knows The Rabbit's Nose the way it twitches, the way it goes!

My husband says this all the time. He says it is from a rhyme or story he knew as a child. I can't find what it is from. Any suggestions?

Did some research and found three versions of a poem that seem to fit the one your husband remembers. Check out the versions we found below.

Nobody knows the rabbit's nose,

The way it twitches

The way it goes

Constantly on it's face!



Nobody knows the rabbit's ears,

The way he listens,

And what he hears

And his sad little rabbit tears!



Nobody knows a rabbit's eyes,

Red as rubies

Without surprise,

In his square fur face!



Here's another version:

Nobody knows the rabbit's nose,

The way it twitches

The way it goes


Nobody knows rabbit's feet,

The way they squash

Everything good to eat!


Nobody knows a rabbit's paw

And how it can

Get very sore!


Nobody knows a rabbit's ear,

The way they prick

When it senses fear!


And let's just face it,

We don't know much about rabbit's and

The way a rabbit goes!


Here's the third version we found:

Nobody knows the rabbit's nose,

The way it twitches,

The way it goes!


Nobody knows the rabbit's ears,

The way they listen

The way they hear!


Nobody knows the rabbits toes,

The way they hop the highs,

The way they bounce the lows!


Nobody knows the rabbit's eyes,

The way they look,

The way they despise!

Hope one of these is the version that your husband enjoyed as a little one.
