| If you've lemons in your head | F |
| First to eat a pound of meat | G |
| And then to go at once to bed | F |
| Eating meat is half the battle | H |
| Till you hear the Lemons rattle | H |
| If you don't you'll always moan | I |

| For there's nothing half so dreadful | H |
| as Lemons in your head | F |
