Down at an English fair
One evening I was there
When I heard a showman
Shouting underneath the flair...

Oh, I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts,
There they are all 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.

Oi! I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts
Every ball you throw will make me rich.
And 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,
Singing 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.
