Sixpence

Type: Traditional

Melody:

I've got sixpence
Jolly. jolly sixpence
I've got sixpence to last me all my life
I've got tuppence to spend
And tuppence to lend
And tuppence to take home to my wife

Chorus:
No cares have I to grieve me
No silly little girls to deceive me
I'm happy as a king believe me
AsI go rolling home
Rolling home (rolling home)
Rolling home (rolling home)
By the light of the silvery moo-oo-on
I'm happy as a king believe me
As I go rolling home.

I've got fourpence
Jolly, jolly fourpence
I've got fourpence to last me all my life
I've got tuppence to spend
And tuppence to lend
And nothing to take home to my wife

Chorus

I've got tuppence
Jolly, jolly tuppence
I've got tuppence to last me all my life
I've got tuppence to spend
And nothing to lend
And nothing to take home to my wife

Chorus

I've got nothing
Jolly. jolly nothing
I've got nothing to last me all my life
I've got nothing to spend
And nothing to lend
And nothing to take home to my wife

Chorus
