[Intro]
I am a market gardener
I grow all sorts of things
Great big ripe tomatoes
And lovely curly greens
I met a fair young maiden
And took her home to tea
I walked her round the garden
And this she said to me

[Verse 1]
Oh, I like your aspidistra
I think it's very nice
I showed her my forget-me-not
She let me kiss her twice
I grabbed her by the geraniums
She yelled out with delight
"I'd like to take a sample of your celery home tonight
Oh, your celery home tonight
Your celery home tonight
I'd like to take a sample of your celery home tonight!"

[Verse 2]
We went into the outhouse
To see her blooms come out
And that she knew her onions
I soon was left no doubt
But when she grabbed me radishes
She yelled out with delight
"I'd like to take a sample of your cucumber tonight
Oh, your cucumber tonight
Your cucumber tonight
I'd like to take a sample of your cucumber tonight!"
