A Tuneless Poem, or a Song-less Tune for a Rigadoon
Johnny Waltz did everything in three you see,
te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee.
and he would get down upon his knees,
in the sod, in the sod, in the sod,
te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee,
and pray to his three person, three person, three person God,
I, myself, and me, and me, I, myself, and me,
te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee.
Sang Johnny, Sang Johnny, Sang Johnny Waltz,
te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee, te-hee-hee!

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

©2014 Unless you gave gone completely mad I can only assume you are taking rustic French dance lessons...in which case:
Johnny Waltz faisaient trois que vous voyez, tout
te-hi-hi, hi-hi-te, te-hi-hi,
et il pourrait se mettre sur ses genoux,
dans le gazon, dans le gazon, dans le gazon,
te-Hi-Hi, HI-HI-te, te-Hi-Hi,
et prier à sa personne trois, trois personnes, trois personne de Dieu,
J'ai, moi-même et moi et moi, j'ai, moi-même et moi,
te-Hi-Hi, HI-HI-te, te-hee-hee.
Chanté Johnny, chantait Johnny, chantait Johnny Waltz,
te-Hi-Hi, HI-HI-te, te-Hi-Hi !
...in which case Abu will have something to add.  
Great fun but watch your punctuation...you only wrote two sentences 
Best,
tectak

Lorettah,
I'm not sure about Tom, but I'm a mimsy, which of course makes me a borogoves, and as everybody knows we are a family of felt makers (why? just felt like I suppose), which causes one to get a little daft due to the inhalation of mercury (the metal, not the god). Well I'm off to the Wabe. Ciao, Pekinese, or Canine American of your choice.
Tom, you are quite correct, there should be a period after line two (or an era if you prefer). Will correct forthwith and so and so, and what'n tot!
