One day I went to the chandler's shop, some candles for to buy,
And when I went into the shop, nobody did I spy,
When I turned around upon my heels, and to the door I sped
When I heard the sound of a (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) right above my head!
When I heard the sound of a (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) right above my head!
Now, you know that I'm a very bold young man, so up the stairs I sped,
And very surprised was I to find the chandler's wife in bed,
And with her was another man of most considerable size,
And they were having a (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) right before my eyes!
And they were having a (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) right before my eyes!
And when the fun was over and done, she lifted up her head,
And very suprised was she to find me standing by her bed:
"If you will be discreet, my lad, if you will be so kind,
You too can come up for some (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) whenever you're so inclined!
You too can come up for some (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) whenever you're so inclined!"
So, many's the day and many's the night when the chandler wasn't home,
To get myself some candles to the chandlers shop I'd roam,
But nary a one she gave to me, she'd give to me instead
Just a little bit more of that (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) to light my way to bed!
Just a little bit more of that (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) to light my way to bed!
So, all you married men, take heed, if ever you come to town,
If you must leave your woman at home, be sure to tie her down!
Or, if you would be kind to her, just set her right there on the floor,
And give her so much of that (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) she'll never want any more!
And give her so much of that (KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK) she'll never want any more!
