A flaxen-headed cow-boy that whistled—
Diddle diddle dumplings, my son John,
Went to bed with his breeches on;
One shoe off, and—
Oh, what pleasure will abound,
When my wife lies under ground;
Oh, what pleasure will abound,
When my wife lies under—
Great George our king,
Long live our noble king,
God save the king.
Send him—
Diddle diddle dumplings, my son John,
Went to bed with his breeches on;
One shoe off, and—
Oh, what pleasure will abound,

Oh, what pleasure will abound,
When my wife lies under—
Great George our king,
Long live our noble king,
God save the king.
