D
England swings like a pendulum do,

                     A
Bobbies on bicycles, two by two.

D                      G
Westminster Abbey, the tower of Big Ben,

    D                      A            D
the rosy red cheeks of the little children.
[Interlude] D Am7 D Am7 [Verse 1]
     D                            G
Now, if you huff and puff and you finally save enough money

D                      A
up to take your family on a trip across the sea.

D                         G 
    Take a tip before you take your trip, let me tell 

    D       N.C.
you where to go...go to England, oh.
[Chorus]

D                          G           D
Mamas old pajamas and your papa's mustache,

D                            A
falling out the window sill, frolic in the grass.

D                                 G              D
Tryin' to mock the way they talk, fun but all in vain,

D                             A              D
gapin' at the dapper men with derby hats and canes.
