I knew a girl, she said she loved me so
Said, "I don't care for you at all
I can do better than you and that's just what I plan to do"

I won't marry you, there's too much to do

Take my hand and you'll fall

I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
That I've done my jo

I'm not grateful for anything that I have
Not the food on my plate, not the clothes on my back
Not the world laid at my feet,
Not the daily sunshine that I meet
Not the way my parents loved me so
Not the upper-middle class life that I know

I won't marry you, there's too much to do

Take my hand and you'll fall

I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
That I've done my jo

Da, da da da da da da

I've done my jo
I've done my job time and time again
