Down the road there lives a man I'd like you all to know
He grew a great big marrow for the local flower show
And when the story got around, they came from far and wide
And when the people saw the marrow, everybody cried
(Ooooh! What a beauty!), I've never seen one as big as that before
(Ooooh! What a beauty!), It must be two feet long or even more
It's such a lovely colour, and nice and round and fat
I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that
(Ooooh! What a beauty!), I've never seen one as big as that before
(Oh-Oh-Ooooh! What a beauty!, we've never seen one as big as that before)
He was leaning on the garden gate the other day
And beckoned to a lady who lives just across the way
He took her down the garden path and showed it her with pride
And when she saw the size of it, the little lady sighed
(Ooooh! What a beauty!), She'd never seen one as big as that before
(Ooooh! What a beauty!), It must be two feet long or even more
It's such a lovely colour, and nice and round and fat
I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that
(Ooooh! What a beauty!), I've never seen one as big as that before
(It's stupendous!)
(It's colossul!)
(It's gigantic!)
(It's bigger than that!)
And then the flower show was held and everybody went
To see the great big marrow, lying there inside the tent
Soon the judges came along to give the prizes out
They only took one look at it and then began to shout
(Ooooh! What a beauty!, we've never seen one as big as that before)
(Ooooh! What a beauty!, it must be two feet long or even more)
It's such a lovely colour, and nice and round and fat
I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that
(Ooooh! What a beauty!, we've never seen one as big as that before
Oooo-oooo-oooh! I've never seen one as big as that before
