1
I'm a young married man and I'm tired of life
2
Ten years I've been wed to a pale sickly wife,
3
She's nothing to do only sit there and cry
4
Praying and praying to God she would die.
5
A friend of my own came to see me one day
6
He told me my wife she was pining away
7
He afterwards told me that she would get strong
8
If I get a bottle from dear Dr John.
9
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
10
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
11
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
12
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
13
I bought her a bottle, well just for to try
14
And the way that she drank it you'd think she might die
15
I bought her another, it vanished the same
16
And then she got cod liver oil on the brain.
17
I bought her another, she drank it no doubt,
18
And then she began to get terrible stout,
19
And when she got stout well of course she got strong
20
And I became jealous of dear Dr John.
21
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
22
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
23
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
24
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
25
Me house it resembles a great doctor's shop
26
Its covered in bottles from bottom to top
27
Well early the morning the kettle does boil
28
You would swear it was singing of cod liver oil.
29
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
30
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
31
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
32
If me wife don't stop drinking
33
Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
34
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
35
I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
36
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
