Coconuts

Coconuts Lyrics

Down in an english fair, one evening I was there
When I heard a showman shouting underneath the flair

I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts
There they are a'standing in a row
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head!
Give 'em a twist, a flick of the wrist
That's what the showman said

I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts
Every ball you throw will make me rich
There stands me wife, the idol of me life
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch

Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball, roll a bowl a ball
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch

I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts (they're lovely)
There they are a'standing in a row (one, two, three, four)
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head! (and bigger)
Give 'em a twist, a flick of the wrist
That's what the showman said

Now that I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts (da da da da da)
Every ball you throw will make me rich (have a banana)
There stands me wife, the idol of me life
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch (all together now)

Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch (harmony!)
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball, roll a bowl a ball
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
