1. I've a nice little patch and a small bit of land And a place by the side of the sea And I care about no-one, because I believe There's nobody cares about me My peace is destroyed and I'm fairly annoyed By a lassie who works in the town She sighs every day as she passes the way Do you want your old lobby washed down? Refrain: Do you want your old lobby washed down? 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?

2. The other day the old landlord came by for his rent I told him no money I had Besides 'twasn't fair for to ask me to pay The times being so terribly bad He felt discontent at not getting his rent And he shook his big head in a frown Says he, I'll take half but says I with a laugh Do you want your old lobby washed down? Refrain: 3. Now the boys look so bashful when they go a courtin' They seem to look awfully shy As to kiss a young maid, sure they seem half afraid But they would if they could on the sly But me I do things in a different way I don't give a nod or a frown When I goes to court I says 'Here goes for sport' Do you want your old lobby washed down? Refrain:
