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 |
