I do hate to see a rover crippled in the stones |
|
Now he's one step nearer to the ground |
|
And I do hate to see a hawker broken in the bones |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down |
|
Everybody's got the sickness, everybody's down |
|
Running to the doctor with a pound |
|
"Doctor, doctor, do you have a needle big enough for me?" |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down |
|
My friend Billy, well he looks so ill, his face is white as milk |
|
Everybody runs for miles when he's in town |
|
He's got every known disease and some without a name |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down |
|
If you want to live to be a poor man or a prince |
|
Pay good attention when evil times abound |
|
Always listen to what your mother says and stay in bed at night |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down, pull you down |
|
Sickness and diseases pull you down |
