Me mother kept a boarding house,
Hulla, baloo, belay!
Hulla, baloo, belah, belay!

And all the boarders were out to sea.
Hulla baloo belay!

A fresh young fellow named Challo Brown,
Foller’d me mother around the town.

One day when father wuz in The Crown,
Me mother ran off with Challo Brown.

Me father says, “Young man me b’y”,
To which I quickly made reply.

Me father slowly pined away.
Because me mother came back the next day.
