98 - Old Jack Jones

One old man come a-rolling down the river
Old Jack Jones
One old man come a-rowing down the river
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws and pull on the oars
For Old Jack Jones
Run and tell your mother cos there’ll never be another
Like old Jack Jones

Old Jack Jones had his knickers made of flannel
Old Jack Jones
When he was a nipper rowed a saucepan cross the channel
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws…

Old Jack Jones, torpedoed by the navy
Old Jack Jones
Patched up the holes with his granny’s lumpy gravy
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws…

Old Jack Jones he took a nip of whiskey
Old Jack Jones
Spat on his hands, rowed across the Bay of Biscay
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws…

Old Jack Jones with honour and devotion
Old Jack Jones
Got married to a mermaid as he crossed the Indian Ocean
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws and pull on the oars
For Old Jack Jones
Run and tell your mother cos there’ll never be another
Like old Jack Jones

Old Jack Jones, his rowing it was frantic
Old Jack Jones
Took two days a-crossing the Atlantic
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws…

Old Jack Jones his rowing it was mighty
Old Jack Jones
Gave a great cheer as he spied the cliffs of Blighty
Old Jack Jones

So put out your paws…

One old man came a rowing up the Seven
Old Jack Jones
One of these days he’ll be rowing up to heaven
Old Jack Jones
