| I’m a young married man and I’m tired of me life
|
| For lately I married an ailing young wife
|
| She does nothing all day, only sits down and sigh
|
| Saying I wish to the lord that I only could die
|
| Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De’Jung
|
| Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
|
| I’m afraid of me life, I’ll go down in the soil
|
| If me wife don’t stop drinking your cod liver oil
|
| Till a friend of me own came to see me one day
|
| And he told me my wife was just pining away
|
| But he afterwards told me that she would get strong
|
| If I buy her a bottle from Dr De’Jung
|
| Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De’Jung
|
| Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
|
| I’m afraid of me life, I’ll go down in the soil
|
| If me wife don’t stop drinking your cod liver oil
|
| So I bought her a bottle, t’was just for to try
|
| And the way that she scoffed it you’d swear she was dry
|
| I bought her another, it went just the same
|
| Till I owned she’s got cod liver oil on the brain
|
| Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De’John
|
| Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
|
| I’m afraid of me life, I’ll go down in the soil
|
| If me wife don’t stop drinking your cod liver oil
|
| Me house it resembles a big doctor’s shop
|
| With bottles and bottles from bottom to top
|
| And when in the morning the kettle do boil
|
| You’d swear it was singing out cod liver oil
|
| Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De’John
|
| Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
|
| I’m afraid of me life, I’ll go down in the soil
|
| If me wife don’t stop drinking your cod liver oil |
