¶Lyrics / Text

There was a chap who kept a store, And, though there might be grander, He sold his goods to all who came, And his name was Alexander. He mixed his goods with cunning hand, He was a skillful brander; And since his sugar was half sand, They called him Alex-Sander. He had his dear one, and she came, And lovingly he scanned her, He asked her would she change her name, Then ring did Alex-hand-her. “Oh yes,” she said, with smiling lip, “If I can be commander;” And so they framed a partnership, And called it Alex-and-her!
