Chorus/Refrain
Five pence in my pocket-book
An' ten pence in my bill
An' if I had another five
I'd tear down Bunker Hill

And when the fighting was over
And cousin William said farewell
I laughed all day because I thought
I'd marry Susie belle
I wrote my love a letter
But I guess I made a blunder
She wrote me back a little note
Saying ' You go to thunder '

C Chorus/Refrain

I took a drink of whiskey
And I took a drink of wine
And when I met my Susie belle
I told her she was mine
I grabbed her but she wriggled so
Around in my embrace
She stomped a blister on my toe
And slapped me in the face

Chorus/Refrain

Last Friday night I busted her
Down on the school-house floor
She linked her little arm in mine
And walked me through the door
Next Sunday is our wedding day
And marry her I will
And that'll be the second time
I beat my cousin Bill

Chorus/Refrain
