Down at an English fair, 
One evening I was there, 
When I heard a showman shouting 
Underneath the flare: 

Hoi've got a lo-ve-ly 
bunch o' coconuts. 
There they are a-standin' 
in a row. 
Big ones, small ones, 
some as big as yer 'ead! 
Give 'em a twist, 
a flick o' the wrist, 
That's what the showman said. 

Hoi've got a lo-ve-ly 
bunch o' coconuts. 
every ball yer throw 
will make me rich. 
There stands me wife, 
the idol of me life, 
Singin' "roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch! 

Singin' roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch! 
Singin' roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch! 
Roll a-bowl a ball, 
roll a-bowl a boll, 
singin' roll a-bowl 
a ball a penny a pitch!

I've got a lo-ve-ly bunch 
of coconuts (They're lovely!) 
There they are a standing 
in a row. 
(One, two, three, four) 
Big ones, small ones, 
some as big as your head 
(And bigger) 
Give 'em a twist, 
a flick of the wrist, 
thats what the showman said. 

Now that hoi've got 
a lo-ve-ly bunch of coconuts. 
(La-da-de-da-da) 
every ball you throw 
will make me rich. 
(Have a banana) 
There stands me wife, 
the idol of me life, 
Singin' roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch! 

All together now! 

Singin' roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch! 
(Harmony!) 
Singin' roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch! 
Roll a-bowl a ball, 
roll a-bowl a ball, 
singin' roll a-bowl a ball, 
a penny a pitch.

Singin' roll a-bowl a ball,
