Ma-Ma dear, come over here
And see who's looking in my window
It's the butcher boy and oh
He's got a bundle in his hand
Tell me why he winks his eye
Whenever he goes by my window

Daughter, daughter he's in love
And you're in love and love is grand

(Spoken - Butcher Boy)
Hey Marie, I gotta da pork chop
Hey Marie, I gotta da lamb chop
Hey Marie, Marie, you want to marry me?

The butcher boy, the butcher boy
I want to marry the butcher boy
(Oh! Ma-Ma!) Oh get that man for me
(Oh! Ma-Ma!) How happy I will be
(Tra-la-la) And cheery-beery be
Oh, if I'm gonna marry
It's the butcher boy for me

Ma-Ma dear, come over here
And see who's looking in my window
It's the baker boy and oh

Whenever he goes by my window

Daughter, daughter he's in love
And you're in love and love is grand

Whenever he goes by my window

Daughter, daughter he's in love
And you're in love and love is grand
