C 
I’ve got a nice little cot and a

small bit of land
 
And a  
G7 
place by the side of the

sea

And I don’t care about no-one

 
F 
Because I believe there’s  
G7 
nobody cares about

me
 
My  
G7 
peace is destroyed and I’m  
C 
fairly 
 
annoyed
 
By a  
D 
lassie who  
D7 
works in the  
G

She  
C 
sighs 
 
ev’ry
C7 
day as she

passes the

G7 
want your old lobby washed

F 
down, Con shine
 
‘Do you  
G7 
want your old lobby washed  
C 
down?’
 
She sighs ev’ry
C7 
day as she  
F 
passes the  
Dm 
way
 
‘Do you  
G7 
want your old lobby washed  
C 
down?’

The other day the landlord came by for his rent
I told him no money I had
Besides ’twasn’t fair to ask me to pay
The times were so awfully 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?’

Chorus

‘Now the boys look so bashful when they go out courtin’
They seem to look so very 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?’

Chorus
