Cabbage tree cabbage tree what is the matterA
Why are you shaking so Why do you chatterA
Because it is just a white baby you seeB
And it's the black ones you like cabbage treeB

Cabbage tree cabbage tree you're a strange fellowC
With your green hair and your legs browny yellowC
Wouldn't you like to have curls dear like meB
What No one to make them O poor cabbage treeB

Never mind cabbage tree when I am tallerA
And if you grow please a little bit smallerA
I shall be able by that time bay beB
To make you the loveliest curls cabbage treeB
