cod-liver oil / coolies - waxies dargle lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m a young married man and i’m tired of me life
for lately i’ve married an ailing young wife
does nothing all day, only sit down and sigh
sayin’, “i wish to the lord that i only could die”
[chorus]
oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dr. dejohn
oh, your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
i’m afraid of me life, i’ll go down in the soil
if me wife don’t stop drinking the cod liver oil
[verse 2]
a friend of me own came to see me one day
and he told me me wife was just fadin’ away
he afterwards told me that she would get strong
if i’d buy her a bottle of dr. dejohn
[chorus]
oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dr. dejohn
oh, your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
i’m afraid of me life, i’ll go down in the soil
if me wife don’t stop drinking the cod liver oil
[verse 3]
i gave her a bottle, t’was just for her to try
and the way that she scoffed it, you’d swear she was dry
i gave her another, it went just the same
now you’d think she had cod liver oil on the brain
[chorus]
oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dr. dejohn
oh, your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
i’m afraid of me life, i’ll go down in the soil
if me wife don’t stop drinking the cod liver oil
[verse 4]
me house, it resembles a big doctor shop
with bottles and bottles from bottom to top
oh, and in the morning the kettle a*boils
and you’d swear it was singing out, “cod liver oil”
[chorus]
oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dr. dejohn
oh, your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
i’m afraid of me life, i’ll go down in the soil
if me wife don’t stop drinking the cod liver oil
