G C D G
[Verse 1]
I Gknow a fat old policeman he's Calways on our street
A Dfat and jolly red-faced man he Greally is a treat
He's too kind for a policeman he's Cnever known to frown
And Deverybody says he is the happiest man in Gtown
[Refrain]
Oh Gho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah
DHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Gha ha ha ha ha
GHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah
DHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ha ha ha ha Gha G  C  D  G  
[Verse 2
GHe laughs upon point duty he Claughs upon his beat
He Dlaughs at everybody when he's Gwalking in the street
He never can stop laughing he Csays he's never tried
But Donce he did arrest a man and laughed until he Gcried
[Refrain]
Oh Gho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah
DHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Gha ha ha ha ha
GHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah

[Verse 3]
GHis jolly face is wrinkled and Cthen he shut his eyes
He Dopened his great big mouth it Gwas a wondrous size
He said "I must arrest you!" he Cdidn't know what for
And Dthen he started laughing until he cracked his fat old Gjaw
[Refrain]
Oh Gho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah

[Verse 4]
GSo if you chance to meet him while Cwalking 'round the town
DShake him by his fat old hand and Ggive him half a crown
His eyes will beam and sparkle he'll Cgurgle with delight
And Dthen you'll start him laughing with all his blessed Gmight
[Refrain]
Oh Gho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah
DHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Gha ha ha ha ha
GHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho Cha ha ha ha hah
DHo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ha ha ha ha Gha
