Bellbottom Trousers

 

Bellbottom trousers, coats of navy blue
He'll climb the rigging like his Daddy used to do
I was just a service girl down in Drury Lane,
My Master wa so nice to me, my Mistress was the same
Along came a sailor freshly back from sea
And he was the cause of all my misery!
Bellbottom trousers, coats of navy blue
He'll climb the rigging like his Daddy used to do
He asked me for a candle to light his way to bed
He asked me for a kerchief to cover up his head
Then I, like a silly girl thinking it no harm,
Jumped into the sailor's bed to keep the sailor warm!
Bellbottom trousers, coats of navy blue
He'll climb the rigging like his Daddy used to do
Then early in the morning before the light of day
He handed me fiver and this to me did say:
O, take this may Darling for the damage I have done
Now you may have daughter and you may have a son
If you have daughter, bounce her on your knee
And if you have a son, then send the bastard off to sea!
Bellbottom trousers, coats of navy blue
He'll climb the rigging like his Daddy used to do
