Last night I was lying on me number, An' a foolish man come wake me out of slumber, Say Why oh! Why oh! I never see a woman dancing with a wooden leg. Bammerlichy, bammerlichy, bamby, Bammerlichy, bammerlichy, bamby, Bammerlichy, bammerlichy, bamby, I never see a woman dancing with a wooden leg.
The scene is laid in the People's Shelter at Kingston which has numbered sleeping-berths.
At "Bammerlichy" etc. the dancers imitate the stiff action of a wooden leg.
