[00:03.45] I'm a young married man and I'm tired of life
[00:07.79] Ten years I've been wed to a pale sickly wife,
[00:11.77] She's nothing to do only sit there and cry
[00:17.17] Praying and praying to God she would die.
[00:21.37] A friend of my own came to see me one day
[00:25.25] He told me my wife she was pining away
[00:29.44] He afterwards told me that she would get strong
[00:34.62] If I get a bottle from dear Dr John.
[00:38.62] Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
[00:42.84] Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
[00:51.65] I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
[00:54.05] If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[00:58.97] I bought her a bottle, well just for to try
[01:03.17] And the way that she drank it you'd think she might die
[01:07.05] I bought her another, it vanished the same
[01:12.03] And then she got cod liver oil on the brain.
[01:16.59] I bought her another, she drank it no doubt,
[01:20.38] And then she began to get terrible stout,
[01:24.48] And when she got stout well of course she got strong
[01:29.80] And I became jealous of dear Dr John.
[01:34.12] Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
[01:38.02] Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
[01:41.82] I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
[01:46.94] If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[01:57.78] Me house it resembles a great doctor's shop
[02:01.99] Its covered in bottles from bottom to top
[02:06.38] Well early the morning the kettle does boil
[02:10.78] You would swear it was singing of cod liver oil.
[02:15.39] Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
[02:19.42] Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
[02:23.61] I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
[02:28.33] If me wife don't stop drinking
[02:30.65] Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear Dr John
[02:34.95] Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
[02:39.03] I'm afraid of my life, I'll go down in the soil
[02:44.15] If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[02:49.46]
