As I was going to Derby, 'twas on a market day, I met the finest ram, sirs, that ever was fed upon hay. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! This ram and I got drunk, sir, as drunk as drunk could be. And when we sobered up, sir, we were far away out on the sea. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! This wonderful old ram, sir, was playful as a kid; He swallowed the captain's spyglass along with the bo'sun's fid. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! One morning on the [bad word] sir, afore eight bells was struck, He climbed up to the sky's I yard an' sat down on the truck. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! This wonnerful ol' ram, sir, he tried a silly trick, He tried to jump a five-barred fence an landed in a rick. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! This wonnerful ol'ram, sir, it grew two horns of brass, One grew out o' his shoulder blade, t'other turned into a mast . That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! An' when this ram was killed, sir, the butcher was covered in blood, Five and twenty butcher boys was carried away the flood. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie! An' when this ram was z dead, sir, they buried it in St Joan's, It tool ten men an' an elephant to carry one of it's bones. That's a lie, that's a lie That's a lie, a lie, a lie!
