Do you love an apple? Do you love a pear?
Do you love a laddie with bonnie brown hair?
[Chorus: after each verse]
But still I love him, I can't deny him
I'll be with him wherever he goes
Before I got married I wore a black shawl
But since I got married I wear bugger all
He stood at the corner, a fag in his mouth
Two hands in his pockets, he whistled me out
He works at the pier for nine bob a week
Come Saturday night, he comes rolling home drunk
Before I got married I'd sport and I'd play
But now, the cradle, it gets in me way
Do you love an apple? Do you love a pear?
Do you love a laddie with bonnie brown hair?
