Hey ho, nobody home, no meat, no bread, no money have I got 
Yet shall we be merry, Hey ho, nobody home 

soul, a soul, a soulcake, please good missus a soulcake 
Apple, a pear, a plum and a cherry, any good thing to make a soul merry 
One for Peter, two for Paul, three for Him who made us all 

God bless the master of this house and the mistress also 
And all the little children that 'round your table grow 
The cattle in your stable, the dog at your front door 
And all that dwell within your gate I wish you ten times more 

The streets are very dirty, my shoes are very thin 
I have a little pocket to put a penny in 
If you haven't got a penny an halfpenny will do 
If you haven't got an halfpenny then God bless you 

Go down into your cellar and see what you can find 
If your barrels are not empty I hope you will be kind 
Indeed I hope you will be kind with your apples and your beer 
And I [bad word] and sing no more 'til this time next year
