I met a man the other day, he was dressed in a very strange way
With a great big hat with a big black brim (With a great big hat with a big black brim)
And that's not all! (And that's not all!)
Cause around his leg was a big black chain and
Dragging on the chain was a big black ball

Now I met a man the other day, and he was dressed in a very strange way
With a great big hat and with big black brim (With a great big hat with a big black brim)
And a black striped band (And a black striped band)
And that's not all! (And that's not all!)
Around his leg was a big black chain and
Dragging on the chain was a big black ball (dragging on the chain was a big black ball)

Now I met a man the other day, he was dressed in a very strange way
With a great big hat with a big black brim (With a great big hat with a big black brim)
