Chorus
Chim chim-in-ey
Chim chim-in-ey
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when I shakes
'ands with you
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Now, as the ladder of life 'as been strung
You may think a sweep's on the bottommost rung
Though I spends me time in the ashes and smoke
In this 'ole wide world there's no 'appier bloke
Chorus Repeats Twice
I choose me bristles with pride, yes, I do
A broom for the shaft and a
Brush for the flue
Up where the smoke is all
Billered and ucrled
'Tween pavement and stars is
The chimney sweep world
When the's 'ardly no day nor
'ardly no night
There's things 'alf in shadow
And 'alf way in light
On the rooftops of London
Coo, what a sight!
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Chim chim cher-ee!
When you're with a sweep you're
In glad company
Nowhere is there a more 'appier crew
Than them wot sings, "Chim chim
Cher-ee, chim cher-oo!"
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee
Chim cher-oo!
