Lumberjack Song

The cast:

BARBER (LUMBERJACK)
Michael Palin
MOUNTIES
Fred Tomlinson Singers

The sketch:

BARBER: I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay.
I sleep all night. I work all day.

MOUNTIES: He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

BARBER: I cut down trees. I eat my lunch.
I go to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
And have buttered scones for tea.

MOUNTIES: He cuts down trees. He eats his lunch.
He goes to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays he goes shopping.
And has buttered scones for tea.
He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

BARBER: I cut down trees. I skip and jump.
I like to press wild flowers.
I put on women's clothing,
And hang around in bars.

MOUNTIES: He cuts down trees. He skips and jumps.
He likes to press wild flowers.
He puts on women's clothing
And hangs around in bars?!
He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

BARBER: I cut down trees. I wear high heels,
Suspendies, and a bra.
I wish I'd been a girlie,
Just like my dear Mama.

BARBER and MOUNTIES: I (He) cut(s) down trees. I (He) wear(s) high heels,
Suspendies, and a bra?!

BARBER: I wish I'd been a girlie,
Just like my dear Mama!
