I am going to PM you now in relevance to this thread.


it's implied that it is the farmer. Everyone just assumes the dog... misplaced modifiers.

"there was a farmer..." "and bingo was his name-o"

The farmer is the primary subject and the dog is secondary, but there is no way to tell which one the lyricist is naming by just reading the lyrics.

There was a farmer who had a dog,
And Bingo was his name-o.
