Jack and Jill

lyrics by: Keith Jepson
Written on Dec 18, 2020

I asked Jack and also Jill to go and get me some water
they legged it up a very steep hill
but didn't come down like they oughta
Jack rolled down and broke his crown
and Jill came tumbling after
I stood at the bottom of the hill
and wet myself with laughter

Humpty Dumpty was very shy
just to look and you could tell
but when he saw them tumbling down
he came right out of his shell

This little piggy on his way to the market
didn't like what he could see
so he turned around and ran back home
all the way crying 'wee wee wee'

Red Riding Hood was passing by
when Jack let out a wail
Jill thought Red was trying it on
and whacked her with her pail

I never did get my awaited drink
of cool refreshing water
but the upside is I married Jill
who gave me a beautiful daughter

Is Jack OK I hear you say?
don't worry on that score
he started drinking a bottle of vinegar each day
but now its more and more

On the top of the hill he sits all day
drinking and smoking a vapour
then when he is done
having his fun
he flakes out on a bed of brown paper
