As I learned it, the only other line was “Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn’t fuzzy, was he?”

I googled and got

Fuzzy Wuzzy
Was a bear
Fuzzy Wuzzy
Had no hair
Fuzzy Wuzzy
Wasn’t fuzzy, was he?

Was he bare?

I learned the lines differently…. like Fuzzy Wuzzy didn’‘t care… and so forth

I learned, “Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn’t very fuzzy, was he?”

I had a little music box that was a bear and played “Happy Birthday.” I remember being convinced that it played “Fuzzy Wuzzy,” and I made up extra lines to make it fit the tune. Unfortunately, I no longer remember those lines.

Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn’t fuzzy, was he?
No!

He was a baldy waldy.

From the dark recesses of my childhood mind:

Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear,
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair,
If Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair,
He wasn’t Fuzzy, was he?

Fuzzy Wuzzy is a bear
Fuzzy Wuzzy has no hair

I heard the next two, slightly different from above, as:

Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn’t very fuzzy, was he?

Fuzzy Wuzzy Was a Bear
Fuzzy Wuzzy Had no Hair
Fuzzy Wuzzy Wasn’t Fuzzy—Was He?
that’s how I learned it in 1897.

Hey somebody drop a beat for me….....

Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear
his girlfriend complained of too much hair
He had a bit of man scap-ing done
and Where once was hair
there now is none

Yeah! I wrote that!

That’s one my dad taught me.

The version I learned was:

Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear,
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair,
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn’t fuzzy, was he?

The other similar little rhyme my dad taught me was:

Yesterday upon the stair
I saw a man who wasn’t there
He wasn’t there again today
Gee, I wish he’s go away!

Even as a child, Fuzzy Wuzzy made a lot more sense than that one.
