Once upon a time there lived an old miser man
Once upon a time there lived an old miser man
By the name of silas stingy
By the name of silas stingy
He carried all his money in a little black box
He carried all his money in a little black box
Which was heavy as a rock
Which was heavy as a rock
With a big padlock
With a big padlock
All the little kids would shout
All the little kids would shout
When silas was about
When silas was about

Silas didnt eat, which was just as well
Silas didnt eat, which was just as well
He would starve himself for a penny

He wore old clothes and he never washed

In the back of his head
In the back of his head
Was a voice that said
Was a voice that said
someone will steal it all
Someone will steal it all
Youll be lying in the gutter with an empty box
Youll be lying in the gutter with an empty box
The thieves will be having a ball
The thieves will be having a ball
(chorus)

He bought a safe to put the box in
He bought a safe to put the box in
And a house to put the safe in
And a house to put the safe in
And a watchdog on a chain to make quite sure
And a watchdog on a chain to make quite sure
And his face was very funny
And his face was very funny
When he counted up his money
When he counted up his money
And he realized he hadnt any more
And he realized he hadnt any more
