W:I'm a young married man and I'm tired of me life
W:for lately I married an ailing young wife;
W:She does nothing all day only sits down and sigh,
W:sayin:' "I wish to the lord that I only could die!"
W:
W:Til a friend of me own came to see me one day
W:and he told me me wife was just pining away,
W:but he afterwards told me that she would get strong
W:if I'd buy her a bottle from doctor de Jongh.
W:
W:  Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor de Jongh,
W:  your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong.
W:  I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil
W:  if me wife don't stop drinkin' your cod liver oil.
W:
W:So I bought her a bottle it was just for to try
W:and the way that she scoffed it, you'd swear she was dry.
W:I bought her another, it went just the same
W:til I own she's got cod liver oil on the brain.
W:
W:  Oh doctor, dear doctor...
W:
W:My house it resembles a big doctor's shop,
W:with bottles and bottles from bottom to top.
W:And when in the morning the kettle's a-boil,
W:you'd swear it was singin' out: "Cod Liver Oil!"
W:
W:  Oh doctor, dear doctor...
