Out of the East there cam a hard man
Oh-ho, a' the way frae Brighton
Ah-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
He went intae a pub and he cam out paralytic
Oh-ho-ho, VP and cider
Ah-ha-ha, what a hell of a mixture
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Does this bus go tae the Dennistoun Palais?
Oh-ho-ho, I'm lookin' fur a lumber
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
In the dancin' he met Hairy Mary
Oh-ho-ho, the floor o' the Gorbals
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Aw, no Mary, are ye dancin'?
"Oh no, it's just the way I'm staunin'"
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Oh, no, Mary, yer one in a million
"Oh-ho-ho, an so's yer chances!"
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Oh, no, Mary, can I run you home?
Oh-ho-ho, I've got a pair of sandshoes
"Ah ha-ha, ye're hell of a funny!"
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
In through the back-close, an' out through the dunny
Oh-ho-ho, it wasn't for the first time
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
The mother came out, she was goin' tae the cludgie
Oh-ho-ho, I buggered off sharpish
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Hairy Mary she had a little baby
Oh-ho-ho, it's faither's in the army
Ah-ha-ha, glory hallelujah
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Now, Hairy Mary is still lookin' for her hard man
Oh-ho-ho, he's joined the Foreign Legion
Ah-ha-ha, Sahara unner ra camels
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
Cod liver oil and the orange juice
