Once when I was feeling low
Quite some time ago
I didn't think that I could last the day
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
Now, I didn't have a cent
My rent I spent
I knew I'd have to leave the key or pay
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
In the lining of my pocket
I happened to find a lonesome little dime
"I'll just have to toss it up" says I
"Heads for coffee, tails for a shine"
But it fell upon the ground
And there it found
An open grating where it went astray
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
"Heads for coffee, tails for a shine"
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
In the lining of my pocket
I happened to find a lonesome little dime
"I'll just have to toss it up" says I
"Heads for coffee, tails for a shine"
But it fell upon the ground
And there it found
An open grating where it went astray
So my hat I gave a tilt
My cane I gave a twirl
And went merrily, merrily on my way
