The Tea Shanty

(David Diamond)

I dreamed I had a cup of tea,

Tea-bags, tea bags away my John!

The way that cuppas used to be

Tea-bags away!



Go lass, and put the kettle on.

Tea-bags, tea-bags away my John!

Don't let the water boil too long.

Tea-bags away!



And don't forget to warm the pot,

Tea-bags, tea-bags away my John!

I won't drink tea if it's not hot.

Tea-bags away!



The tea we had when I was young

Tea-bags, tea-bags away my John!

Was twice as good, three times as strong.

Tea-bags away!



Now pour the tea, but what is this?

Tea-bags, tea-bags away my John!

You call this tea? It tastes like ....!

Tea-bags, away!

(To the tune of 'Lowlands Away'.)
