The Dubliners - Cod Liver Oil lyrics

I'm a young married man and I'm tired of me life For lately I married an ailing young wife, She does nothing all day, only sits down and sigh Saying I wish to the lord that I only could die. Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De'Jung Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil. Till a friend of me own came to see me one day And he told me my wife was just pining away But he afterwards told me that she would get strong If I buy her a bottle from Dr De'Jung. Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De'Jung Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil. So I bought her a bottle, t'was just for to try And the way that she scoffed it you'd swear she was dry I bought her another, it went just the same Till I owned she's got cod liver oil on the brain. Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De'John Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil. Me house it resembles a big doctor's shop With bottles and bottles from bottom to top And when in the morning the kettle do boil You'd swear it was singing out cod liver oil. Oh doctor, dear doctor, oh doctor De'John Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong I'm afraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
