I'VE GOT SIXPENCE
usbar

I've got sixpence, jolly, jolly sixpence,
I've got sixpence to last me all my life.
I've got twopence to spend and twopence to lend
And twopence to send home to my wife, poor wife.

No cares have I to grieve me, no tall and handsome man
To deceive me, I'm happy as a queen, believe me,
As we go rolling, rolling home.

Rolling home, rolling home, rolling home, rolling home,
By the light of the silvery moon,
Happy is the day when the Air Corps gets its pay,
As we go rolling, rolling home.

I've got fourpence, jolly, jolly fourpence,

I've got fourpence to last me all my life,
I've got twopence to spend and twopence to lend,
And no pence to send home to my wife, poor wife.

I've got twopence, jolly, jolly twopence,
I've got twopence to last me all my life,
I've got twopence to spend and no pence to lend,
And no pence to send home to my wife, poor wife!
