Toora loora loora la, toora loora loora la
Toora loora loora la, give the child a jar of porter
Toora loora loora la, toora loora loora la
Sing toora loora loora la, give the child a jar of porter
If you want your child to grow, your child to grow,
your child to grow
If you want your child to grow, give 'im a jar of porter
Sing toora loora loora la, toora loora loora la
Sing toora loora loora la, give 'im a jar of porter
When I was young and cradle cake,
no drop of milk now would I take
Me father up, then had his spake,
"Give the child a jar of porter"
Sing toora loora loora la, toora loora loora la
Sing toora loora loora la, give the child a jar of porter
When I am dead and in my grave,
I hope for me a prayer you'll say
And as you're passing by that you'll throw in a jar of porter
Toora loora loora la, toora loora loora la
Sing toora loora loora la, throw in a jar of porter
Sad verse
And when I reach the golden gates,
I hope I'll not have long to wait
I'll call Saint Peter aside and say
"Brought yup a jar of porter"
Sing toora loora loora la, toora loora loora la
Sing toora loora loora la, brought yup a jar of porter
