Chim Chim Cher-ee (Rooftop Duet)
Up where the smoke is all billered and curled
'Tween pavement and stars is the chimney sweep world
When there's 'ardly no day nor 'ardly no night
There's things 'alf in shadow and 'alfway in light
On the rooftops of London, coo, what a sight!
Now as the ladder of life 'as been strung
You might thing a sweep on the bottommost rung
Though I spends me time in the ashes and smoke
In this 'ole wide world there's no 'appier bloke
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ney, chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when I shake 'ands with you
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee!
When you're with a sweep you're in glad company
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee!
When you're with a sweep you're in glad company
Nowhere is there a more 'appier crew
Than them wot sings, "Chim chim cher-ee
Chim chim cher-oo!""
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee,
chim cher-oo!
'Tween pavement and stars is the chimney sweep world
When there's 'ardly no day nor 'ardly no night
There's things 'alf in shadow and 'alfway in light
On the rooftops of London, coo, what a sight!
Now as the ladder of life 'as been strung
You might thing a sweep on the bottommost rung
Though I spends me time in the ashes and smoke
In this 'ole wide world there's no 'appier bloke
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ney, chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when I shake 'ands with you
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee!
When you're with a sweep you're in glad company
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee!
When you're with a sweep you're in glad company
Nowhere is there a more 'appier crew
Than them wot sings, "Chim chim cher-ee
Chim chim cher-oo!""
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim cher-ee,
chim cher-oo!
