Give me a dollar and a half and
Three pounds to make me laugh.
A dollar and a half and
Three pounds to make me laugh.
I need ye to console 'cause...
O ma life's been tough.

I fell in love long time wi'
A gal I thought was kind.
I loved a cute cute gal;
A gal I thought was kind.
But the way that she left me...
An' now I lost ma mind.

An American gives me a dollar,
An Englishman makes me laugh.
A bottle o' gin an' whiskey,
A bottle makes me laugh.
She made me lose ma money :
An' made ma life so tough.
