Sickness & Diseases |
| I do hate to see a rover crippled in the stones |
| Now he’s one step nearer to the ground |
| And I do hate to see a hawker broken in the bones |
| Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
| Sickness and diseases pull you down |
| Everybody’s got the sickness, everybody’s down |
| Running to the doctor with a pound |
| «Doctor, doctor, do you have a needle big enough for me?» |
| My friend Billy, well he looks so ill, his face is white as milk |
| Everybody runs for miles when he’s in town |
| He’s got every known disease and some without a name |
| If you want to live to be a poor man or a prince |
| Pay good attention when evil times abound |
| Always listen to what your mother says and stay in bed at night |
