Rolf Harris - Jake the Peg

============================

[Chorus:]

I'm Jake the Peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um

With my extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um

Wherever I go through rain and snow

The people always let me know

There's Jake the peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um

With his extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle

The day that I born (oh boy) my father nearly died

He couldn't get my nappies on, how matter how he tried

'Cos I was born with an extra leg, and since that day begun

I had to learn to stand on my own three feet

Believe me that's no fun

[Chorus]

I had a dreadful childhood really, I s'pose I shouldn't moan

Each time they had a three legged race, I won it on me own

And also I got popular, when came the time for cricket

They used to roll my trousers up

And use me for the wicket

[Chorus]

I was a dreadful scholar, I found all the lessons hard

The only thing I knew for sure, was three feet make a yard

To count to ten I used me fingers, if I needed more

By getting my shoes and socks off

I could count to twenty four

I'm Jake the [stops to count]

...to twenty five

I'm Jake the peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um

With my extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um

Whatever I did they said was false

They said "quick march" I did the quick waltz

Then they shouted at me "put your best foot forward" - but which foot?

I said "it's very fine for you, you only got a choice of two"

But me, I'm Jake the Peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um

With the extra leg... diddle-iddle-iddle-um
