V1 : Goodness how it gLows
v2 :Last lines:
He saw mw red - a fire alarm that's what he did require
So he punched me face, pulled me nose - and started shouting fire

The wife and I went walking, down a country lane
We had a row because I had me waistcoat on again
And as we both was arguing a bull was coming by
he looked at me then looked again and winked his other eye
His tail goes up as he makes a dash for me
My old girl for safety went dodging round a tree
Suddenly it come to me I must save me life
So I took me waistcoat off and I popped it on the wife!

The above is the third verse - though I'm uncertain about the fourth line - I have a little memory blank there. Uncertain of my original source - but it was probably the sheet music
