(C) I've a nice little cot and a (F) small bit of land, and a (G7) place by the side of the (C) sea

And I care about no-one be(F)cause I believe there's (G7) nobody cares about (C) me.

My (G7) peace is destroyed and I'm (C) fairly annoyed by a (D) lassie who (D7) works in the (G) town (G7)

She (C) sighs ev'ry (C7) day as she (F) passes the (Dm) way 'Do you (G7) want your old lobby washed (C) down?'

CHORUS

(C) 'Do you want your old lobby washed (F) down?' Con Shine, 'Do you (G7) want you old lobby washed (C) down?'

She sighs ev'ry (C7) day as she (F) passes the (Dm) way, 'Do you (G7) want your old lobby washed (C) down?'

(C) The other day the landlord came (F) by for his rent, and I told (G7) him no money I (C) had.

Besides 'twasn't fair for to (F) ask me to pay,(G7) the times were so awfully (C) bad

He (G7) felt discontent at not (C) getting his rent, and he (D) shook his (D7) big head with a (G) frown, (G7)

Says (C) he 'I'll take (C7) half, but (F) says I with a laugh, 'Do you (G7) want your old lobby washed (C) down?'

CHORUS

(C) Now the boys look so bashful (F) when they go out courting, they (G7) seem to look so very (C) shy

As to kiss a young maid, sure (F) they seem half afraid.(G7) But they would if they could only (C) smile

But (G7) me I do (C) things in a (D) different way, I don't (D7) give a nod or a (G) frown (G7)

When I (C) goes to court,(C7) I says 'He knows the (Dm) score' 'Do you (G7) want your old lobby washed (C) down?'

CHORUS
