There was an old lady lived over the sea And she was an island queen Her daughter lived off in a new country With an ocean of water between The old lady's pockets were full of gold But never contented was she So she called on her daughter to pay her a tax Of three pence a pound on her tea Of three pence a pound on her tea

"Now mother dear mother," the daughter replied, "I shan't do the thing you ax. I'm willing to pay a fair price for the tea, But never the three-penny tax." "You shall," quoth the mother, and reddened with rage, "For you're my own daughter, you see, And sure 'tis quite proper the daughter should pay Her mother a tax on her tea, Her mother a tax on her tea."

The tea was conveyed to the daughter's door, All down by the ocean's side; And the bouncing girl pour'd out every pound In the dark and boiling tide; And then she called out to the Island Queen, "Oh, mother, dear mother," quoth she, "Your tea you may have when 'tis steep'd quite enough But never a tax from me But never a tax from me
