Ohhh the sewing machine

The sewing machine a girl's best friend

If I didn't have my sewing machine

I'd a come to no good end

But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

And wheel the wheel by day

So by night I feel so weary

That I never get out to play

Ohhh

The sewing machine the sewing machine a helping hand

If I didn't have my sewing machine

I'd drink to beat the band

But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

As busy as a bug

So by night I feel so weary

That I can hardly lift a mug

Ohh ohhh

The sewing machine ah the sewing machine ah a friend in need

If I didn't have my sewing machine a wicked life I'd lead

But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

And dream about romance so by night I feel so weary

That I never get out to dance

Ohhh

The sewing machine the sewing machine a pal so a dear

If I didn't have my sewing machine I'd try a stage career

But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

So amateur night comes by

But by then I feel so weary

That I haven't the strength to try

Ohhh ohhh ohh ohh ohh

The sewing machine ah the sewing machine ah me pride and joy

If I didn't have me sewing machine

I'd a married James Mccoy

But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

And that's the end of Jim

'Cause by night I get so weary

I don't even look good to him

Ohhh

Have I got a boss

He looks like a ho'sshis name's Joe go it

If he didn't own the sewing machine

I'd a kicked him where it hurts

While a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

He keeps his eyes on me

Why I never never have kicked him still remains a mystery

Ohhh

I thread the needle

And fix the shuttle and put in the cloth

And pull up the lever

And bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle

And wheel the wheel all day

Ohhh

The sewing machine the sewing machine the sewing machine

The sewing machine is a girl's best friend

This is the end
