[Verse 1]
His name is Mister Snow
And an upstandin' man is he
He comes home ev'ry night in his round-bottomed boat
With a net full of herring from the sea
An almost perfect beau
As refined as a girl could wish
But he spends so much time in his round-bottomed boat
That he can't seem to lose the smell of fish
The first time he kissed me, the whiff from his clo'es
Knocked me flat on the floor of the room;
But now that I love him, my heart's in my nose
And fish is my fav'rite perfume
Last night hе spoke quite low
And a fair-spoken man is hе
And he said, "Miss Pipperidge, I'd like it fine
If I could be wed with a wife
And, indeed, Miss Pipperidge, if you'll be mine
I'll be yours for the rest of my life."
[Verse 2]
Next moment we were promised
And now my mind's in a maze
Fer all I can do is look forward to
That wonderful day of days
His name is Mister Snow

With a net full of herring from the sea

That he can't seem to lose the smell of fish
The first time he kissed me, the whiff from his clo'es
Knocked me flat on the floor of the room;
But now that I love him, my heart's in my nose
And fish is my fav'rite perfume
Last night hе spoke quite low
