The Duchess |
| Oh my wife is tall and short, |
| She won’t do what she ought. |
| She never lies, but then again, |
| She lies down all day long. |
| Oh My wife is fat and thin, |
| She’s generous and mean, |
| She’s -----, and |
| Her secret’s safe with me. |
| Oh My wife is old and young |
| So sweet with her poison tongue |
| On her evenings off she blackmails toffs, |
| But her secret’s safe with me. |
| Oh My wife is tall and short, |
| She hangs out down the port, |
| Says «Hello sailor, how’s your dad?» |
| But her secret’s safe with me. |
| Oh My wife is sour and sweet, |
| She dit dit dit delete, |
| She’s lalala ladida, butter |
| Secret’s safe with me. |
