[Verse 1]
EHere they come again
Hop Ascotching up to my Edoor
EOne by one again
Knockety knock Aknocking upon my Efloor
[Verse 2]
ESwinging on my gate
They gain Aentry by the yardE  
EPulling at my hair they scream
Paint your Athoughts upon my caErd
[Pre-Chorus]
BBut not tonight I've got Estudies to examineB  E  
BTomorrow I'll be Ewatching all the Queen's BmeEn
BA talent contest on EMonday with my Uncle BSam
BWho now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B'cause he's a wonderful man
[Chorus]
EBut I'm sailing across the sea
To Asee my Uncle SamE  
EI'm sailing across the sea
To Abe with my Uncle ESam
To Abe with my Uncle ESam
[Verse 4]
ESilly little sniggers from the women liberators
But I'll Astand and hold my postE  
EPolished buttons and erect I'll raise the flag
I'll show those Awomen who's the mostE  
[Pre-Chorus]
BBut not tonight I've got Estudies to examineB  
BTomorrow I'll be Ewatching all the Queen's Bmen
BA talent contest on EMonday with my Uncle BSam
BWho now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B'cause he's a wonderful man
[Chorus to fade]
But I'm Esailing across the sea
To Asee my Uncle SamE  
EI'm sailing across the sea
To Abe with my Uncle CSaFmC  F  C  
ESailing across the sea
To Asee my Uncle SamE  
EI'm sailing across the sea
To Abe with my Uncle ESam
EI'm sailing across the sea
To Abe with my Uncle ESam
EI'm sailing across the sea
To Abe with my Uncle ESam
