"Jack And Jill" lyrics
"Jack And Jill"
I'd lost all the breath within me
As I went up on the hill
When there she was, with a sad expression
Saying, oh my name is Jill
And I can't find how to get some water
Can you help me? Say you will!
For your time I will reward you
And you know I surely will
How could I refuse a lady
When she'd put it quite so well?
There was I in a situation
With no-one around to tell
So all that day, I put some water
In the bucket by the well
When she smiled, I felt her harder
But on the way I fell... down
Down – right down the bottom
Ooh ooh ooh, right down the bottom
I didn't mind spilling all the water
If I'd satisfied myself
There the time didn't really matter
It could have been somebody else
She would say I will reward you
And even thought it cost a crown
Now I find my life is sweeter
Every time I fall down...
So all that day, I put some water
In the bucket by the well
When she smiled, I felt her harder
But on the way I fell... fell... fell... fell...
Down – right down the bottom
Ooh ooh ooh, right down the bottom
