Lyrics
Do you love an apple

Do you love an apple, do you love a pear?
Do you love a laddie with curly brown hair?
Chorus

And still, I love him, I can't deny him
I'll be with him where ever he goes

Before I got married I wore a black shawl
But now that I'm married I wear bugger-all
Chorus

He stood at the corner, a fag in his mouth
Two hands in his pockets, he whistled me out
Chorus

He works at the pier, for nine pound a week,
Saturday night he comes rolling home drunk

Chorus

Before I got married I'd sport and I'd play
But now, the cradle gets in me way
Chorus

Do you love an apple, do you love a pear?
Do you love a laddie with curly brown hair?
And still, I love him, I can't deny him
I'll be with him where ever he goes
