| Priests and People and Lords and Crown | C |
| I sits on all of 'em fair and square | B |
| And that is reason it don't break down | C |

| I won't trust one leg nor two nor three | D |
| To carry my weight when I sets me down | C |
| I wants all four of 'em under me | D |
| Priests and People and Lords and Crown | C |

| I sits on all four and favours none | E |
| Priests nor People nor Lords nor Crown | C |
| And I never tilts in my chair my son | E |
| And that is the reason it don't break down | C |

| When your time comes to sit in my Chair | B |
| Remember your Father's habits and rules | F |
| Sit on all four legs fair and square | B |
| And never be tempted by one legged stools | F |
