Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a man lives down in the street I'd like you all to know He grew a great big marrow for the local farmer's show When the story got around, they came from far and wide When they saw the size of it, all the ladies cried [Chorus] Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before Oh, what a beauty, It must be two foot long or even more Such a lovely colour, so nice and round and fat I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before [Verse 2] He was leaning on his garden gate the other day He beckoned to a lady who lived just across the way He took her down the garden path and showed her it with pride When she saw the size of it that little lady cried [Chorus] Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before Oh, what a beauty, It must be two foot long or even more Such a lovely colour, so nice and round and fat I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before [Verse 3] Then the feller showed it again and everybody went To see his great big marrow lying there inside the tent Then the judges came around to give the prizes out They only took one look at it, and they began to shout [Chorus] Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before Oh, what a beauty, It must be two foot long or even more Such a lovely colour, so nice and round and fat I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before Everybody oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before Oh, what a beauty, It must be two foot long or even more Such a lovely colour, so nice and round and fat I never thought a marrow could grow as big as that Oh, what a beauty, I've never seen one as big as that before I've never seen one as big as that before I've never seen one as big as that before
