Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
Country Vicar
The Country Vicar
The Country Vicar
There once was a country vicar who said to his curate John,
"I bet I've had more women than you" and the curate said
"You're on! You're on!" and the curate said "you're on!"
"Tomorrow outside the church we'll stand and this shall be the sign"
"You ding-a-ding for the women you've had,
and I'll ding-a-dong for mine, for mine
and I'll ding-a-dong for mine".
There were more ding-a-dings than ding-a-dong dongs
'till a pretty young maid walked by
and the curate went ding-dong
"Ah", said the vicar "Don't ding-a-dong there
that's my wife I do declare"
"Well" said the curate "I don't care"
with a ding-a ding-dong ding-dong ding-dong
with a ding-a ding-a ding-a ding-dong.
