Lyrics:

There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza
There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, a hole

So fix it dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
So fix it dear Henry, dear Henry, fix it

With what should I fix it, dear Liza, dear Liza
With what should I fix it, dear Liza, with what?

With straw, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
With straw, dear Henry, dear Henry, with straw

But the straw is too long, dear Liza, dear Liza
The straw is too long, dear Liza, too long

So cut it dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
So cut it dear Henry, dear Henry, cut it!

With what should I cut it, dear Liza, dear Liza
With what should I cut it, dear Liza, with what?

With an axe, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
With an axe, dear Henry, an axe

But the axe is too dull, dear Liza, dear Liza
The axe is too dull, dear Liza, too dull

So, sharpen it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
So sharpen it dear Henry, dear Henry, sharpen it!

With what should I sharpen it, dear Liza, dear Liza
With what should I sharpen, dear Liza, with what?

Use the stone, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
Use the stone, dear Henry, dear Henry, the stone

But the stone is too dry, dear Liza, dear Liza
The stone is too dry, dear Liza, too dry

So wet it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
So wet it dear Henry, dear Henry, wet it

With what should I wet it, dear Liza, dear Liza
With what should I wet it, dear Liza, with what?

With water, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
With water, dear Henry, dear Henry, water

With what should I carry it, dear Liza, dear Liza
With what should I carry it dear Liza, with what?

Use the bucket dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
Use the bucket, dear Henry, dear Henry, the bucket!

There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza
There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, a hole
