(Trad)
I've a nice little cot and a small piece of land
And a place by the side of the sea
And I cares about no one because I believe
That nobody cares about me
My peace is destroyed and I'm surely annoyed
By a lassie who lives down the town
She sighs every day as she passes the way
Do you want your old lobby washed down
Do you want your old lobby washed down, Con Shine
Do you want your old lobby washed down
She sighs every day as she passes the way
Do you want your old lobby washed down
The other day the old landlord came by for his rent
I told him no money I had
Besides 't wasn't fair for to ask me to pay
And the times were so awfully bad
He looked discontent at not getting his rent
And he shook his big head with a frown
Says he, I'll take half, and says I for the laugh
Do you want your old lobby washed down
Do you want your old lobby washed down, Con Shine
Do you want your old lobby washed down
Says he, I'll take half, and says I for the laugh
Do you want your old lobby washed down
Now the boys are so bashful when they go out courting
They seem to be so very shy
As to kiss a young maid, oh they would in the shade
They would if they could on the sly
Sure, but me, I do things in a different way
I don't give a damn or a frown
When I goes to court, I says here goes for sport
Do you want your old lobby washed down
Do you want your old lobby washed down, Con Shine
Do you want your old lobby washed down
When I goes to court, I says here goes for sport
Do you want your old lobby washed down
