Old man Joe,
Sitting on a bench,
Turning nuts with his wrench
Old man Joe,
Working all day,
Whittle, whittle he whittles away,
Old man Joe,
Sitting in the shade,
With his new friend the old maid,
Under the stars,
They dance like fools,
Till she took off with Joe’s tools,
Old man Joe said,
I have no nut,
I have no wrench,
Said Old man Joe,
Sitting on a bench.
