Oliver - Oom Pah Pah lyrics

There's a little ditty they're singin' in the city

Especially when they've been on the gin or the beer

If you've got the patience your own imaginations will tell you just exactly what you want to hear

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, that's how it goes

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, everyone knows

And they all suppose what they want to suppose when they hear oom pah pah

Mr. Percy Snodgrass would often have the odd glass

But never when he thought anybody could see

Secretly he'd buy it, and drink it on the quiet

And dream he was an Earl with a girl on his knee

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, that's how it goes

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, everyone knows

What is the cause of his red shiny nose?

Could it be oom pah pah?

Pretty little Sally goes walking down the alley

Displays her pretty ankles to all of the men

They could see her garters, but not for free and gratis

An inch or two and then she knows when to say when

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, that's how it goes

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, everyone knows

Whether its hidden or whether it shows

It's the same oom pah pah

She was from the country, but now she's up a gumtree

She let a fellow beat her, and lead her along

What's the use of cryin', she made her bed to lie in

She's glad to bring a coin in, and join in this song

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, that's how it goes

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, everyone knows

She is no longer the same blushing rose

Ever since oom pah pah

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, that's how it goes

Oom pah pah, oom pah pah, everyone knows

And they all suppose what they want to suppose

When they hear oom pah pah
