Take good care of what you´ve got
My father said to me
As he puffed his pipe and baby B.
He dandled on his knee
Don´t fool with fools who´ll turn away

Keep all good company
Oo hoo oo hoo
Take care of those you call your own
And keep good company

Soon I grew and happy too
My very good friends and me
We´d play all day with Sally J.
The girl from number four
Very soon I begged her won´t you
Keep me company
Oo hoo oo hoo
Oo hoo oo hoo
Come marry me for evermore we´ll
Be good company

Now marriage is an institution sure
My wife and I our needs and nothing more

All my friends by a year
By and by disappeared
But we´re safe enough behind our door

I flourished in my humble trade
My reputation grew
The work devoured my waking hours
But when my time was through
Reward of all my efforts my own
Limited company

I hardly noticed Sally as we
Parted company
All through the years in the end it appears
There was never really anyone but me

Now I´m old, I puff my pipe
But no-one´s there to see

I ponder on the lesson of
My life´s insanity
Take care of those you call your own
And keep good company
