There was a man of double deed
He sowed his garden full of seed
There was a man of double deed
He sowed his garden full of seed

When the seed begins to grow
'Twas like a garden full of snow
When the seed begins to grow
'Twas like a garden full of snow

There was a man of double deed
He sowed his garden full of seed
There was a man of double deed
He sowed his garden full of seed

(A raping I shall go
A raping I shall go
Hey ho the Noddy oh
A raping I shall go)

When the seed begins to grow
'Twas like a garden full of snow
When the snow begins to melt
'Twas like a ship without a belt

Yes

When the ship begins to sail
It's like a bird without a tail
When the bird begins to fly
It's like an eagle in the sky

When the sky begins to roar
It's like a lion at your door
When the door begins to crack
It's like a stick across your back

When your back begins to smart
It's like a penknife in your heart
When your back begins to smart
It's like a penknife in your heart

When your heart begins to bleed
It's then -

(Scarlet women we call the whore
Riding up on hooves of evening)

- and then, and then

(A raping I shall go
A raping I shall go)

Indeed there was a man of double deed
He sowed his garden full of seed
And when the seed begins to grow
It's like a garden full of fucking snow

When the snow begins to melt
It's like a ship without a belt
When the ship begins to sail
It's like a bird without a tail

And when your heart begins to bleed
Stiff in death and death indeed
