I love sixpence, jolly little sixpence.

I love sixpence better than my life.

I spent a penny of it, I lent a penny of it,

And I took fourpence home to my wife.

 

Oh, my little fourpence, jolly little fourpence.

I love fourpence better than my life.

I spent a penny of it, I lent a penny of it,

And I took twopence home to my wife.

 

Oh, my little twopence, jolly little twopence.

I love twopence better than my life.

I spent a penny of it, I lent a penny of it,

And I took nothing home to my wife.

 

Oh, my little nothing, jolly little nothing.

What will nothing buy for my wife?

I have nothing, I spend nothing.

I love nothing better than my wife.
