She sat on the verandah
And played her guitar
Played her guitar
Played her guitar
She sat on the verandah
And played her guitar
Played her guitar

He sat down beside her
And smoked his cigar
etc



He said that he loved her
But oh! how he lied
etc



She said she believed him
But oh! how she sighed
etc



They were to be married
But somehow she died
etc



He went to her funeral
But just for the ride
etc



He sat on her tombstone
And laughed till he cried
etc



The tombstone fell on him
And squish squash he died
etc



She went to heaven
And flip flap she flied
etc



He went to t'other place
And frizzled & fried
etc



Now the moral of this story is ne'er tell a lie
Is ne'er tell a lie
etc



If you want any more
You can sing it again
etc
