I'm a young married man and I'm tired of me [G] life, For lately I married a nailing young wife.
[Am] She does nothing all day, only [G] sits down and sigh, [Am] Saying, I wish [G] to the Lord [Am] that I only could die.
Oh, Doctor, dear Doctor, oh, Doctor de Jong, [G] Your cattle over Isle is so pure and so [Am] strong,
I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down [G] in the soil, [Am] If me wife [G] don't stop drinking [Am] your cod liver oil.
Till a friend of me own came to see me one day, [G] And he told me me wife was just pining away,
[Am] But he afterwards told me that she would [G] get strong, [Am] If I'd buy her [G] a [Am] bottle from Doctor de Jong.
Oh, Doctor, dear Doctor, oh, Doctor de [G] Jong, Your cattle over Isle is so pure and so strong,
[Am] I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down in [G] the soil, [Am] If me [G] wife don't stop drinking [Am] your cattle over Isle.

So I bought her a bottle, it was just far to try, [G] And the way that she scuffed it, you'd swear she was [Am] dry.
I bought her another, it went [G] just the same, [Am] Till I owned [G] she's got [Am] cattle over Isle on the brain.
Oh, Doctor, dear Doctor, oh, Doctor de Jong, [G] Your cattle over Isle is so pure and so strong,
[Am] I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down [G] in the soil, [Am] If me wife don't [Em] stop [Am] drinking your cattle over Isle.
My house, it resembles a big doctor's shop, [G] With bottles and bottles from bottom to top,
[Am] And when in the morning the [G] cattle's a-boil, [Am] You'd [G] swear it was singing [Am] out, cattle over Isle.
Oh, Doctor, dear Doctor, oh, Doctor de [G] Jong, Your cattle over Isle is so pure and so strong,
