Do you love an apple? Do you love a pear?
Do you love a laddie with bonnie brown hair?

Chorus (after each verse):
But still I love him, I can't deny him
I'll be with him wherever he goes

Before I got married I wore a black shawl
But since I got married I wear bugger all

He stood at the corner, a fag in his mouth
Two hands in his pockets, he whistled me out

He works at the pier for nine bob a week
Come Saturday night, he comes rolling home drunk

Before I got married I'd sport and I'd play
But now, the cradle, it gets in me way

Do you love an apple? Do you love a pear?
Do you love a laddie with bonnie brown hair?
