I'd lost all the breath within me As I went up on the hill When there she was, with a sad expression Saying, oh my name is Jill And I can't find how to get some water Can you help me? Say you will! For your time I will reward you And you know I surely will
How could I refuse a lady When she'd put it quite so well? There was I in a situation With no-one around to tell So all that day, I put some water In the bucket by the well When she smiled, I felt her harder But on the way I fell... down
Down - right down the bottom Ooh ooh ooh - right down the bottom
I didn't mind spilling all the water If I'd satisfied myself There the time didn't really matter It could have been somebody else She would say I will reward you And even thought it cost a crown Now I find my life is sweeter Every time I fall down...
So all that day, I put some water In the bucket by the well When she smiled, I felt her harder But on the way I fell... fell... fell... fell...
Down - right down the bottom Ooh ooh ooh - right down the bottom
