LYRICS
CHORUS
I used to work in London Town
In a merchant store
I thought I did a pretty good job
But I don't work there anymore
VERSE 1
A lass came in for a drink one day
I asked her what kind she preferred
"Liquor," she said, so lick her I did
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
VERSE 2
I pirate came in for some treasure one day
I asked him what kind he'd prefer
Booty he said, so booty he got
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
VERSE 3
A man came in for some paint one day
I asked him what kind he'd prefer
Blue he said, so blue him I did
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
VERSE 4
A man came in for some tools one day
I asked him what kind he'd prefer
A hammer he said, so nail him I did
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
VERSE 5
A lass came in for some poultry one day
I asked her what kind she preferred
"A duck," she said...I misheard
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
VERSE 6
A lass came in for some pie one day
I asked him what kind she'd prefer
Cherry she said, but that was long gone
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
VERSE 7
A lass came in for some whiskey one day
I asked her how much she preferred
"A finger," she said, my whole hand she got
And now I don't work there anymore
And now I don't work there anymore
CHORUS
