Six Pence


Lyrics

I’ve got 6 Pence, jolly, jolly, 6 pence! I’ve got 6 pence, to last me all my life! I’ve got 2 pence to spend, and 2 pence to lend, and 2 pence to send home to my wife, POOR WIFE!!! No care’s have I to grieve me, no pretty little girls to deceive me. I’m happy as a lark, believe me, as we go rolling, rolling, home. Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) By the light of the silvery moooon! Happy is the day when STAFF GETS PAID!!! As we go rolling, rolling home. I’ve got 4 Pence, jolly, jolly, 4 pence! I’ve got 4 pence, to last me all my life! I’ve got 2 pence to spend, and 2 pence to lend, and no pence to send home to my wife, POOR WIFE!!! No care’s have I to grieve me, no pretty little girls to deceive me. I’m happy as a lark, believe me, as we go rolling, rolling, home. Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) By the light of the silvery moooon! Happy is the day when STAFF GETS PAID!!! As we go rolling, rolling home. I’ve got 2 Pence, jolly, jolly, 2 pence! I’ve got 2 pence, to last me all my life! I’ve got 2 pence to spend, and no pence to lend, and no pence to send home to my wife, POOR WIFE!!! No care’s have I to grieve me, no pretty little girls to deceive me. I’m happy as a lark, believe me, as we go rolling, rolling, home. Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) By the light of the silvery mooon! Happy is the day when STAFF GETS PAID!!! As we go rolling, rolling home. I’ve got no Pence, not so jolly, no pence! I’ve got no pence, to last me all my life! I’ve got no pence to spend, and no pence to lend, and no pence to send home to my wife, POOR WIFE!!! No care’s have I to grieve me, no pretty little girls to deceive me. I’m happy as a lark, believe me, as we go rolling, rolling, home. Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) Rolling home, (ROLLING HOME!) By the light of the silvery moooon! Happy is the day when STAFF GETS PAID!!! As we go rolling, rolling home!

A fun song for camp — and if singing with the staff you can add in the “Staff gets paid” or omit as needed.
