Agora havia uma jovem da Grosvenor SquareNow there was a young lady from Grosvenor Square
Que disse que seu relógio precisava de consertoWho said that her clock was in need of repair
Entra o ousado alemão e para sua alegriaIn walks the bold german and to her delight
Em menos de cinco minutos ele deixou o relógio em diaIn less than five minutes he had her clock right

Agora enquanto estavam sentados no chãoNow as they were seated down on the floor
Veio uma batida bem alta na porta entãoThere came this very loud knock on the door
Entra o marido e ficou em choqueIn walks her husband and great was is shock
Ao ver o velho alemão dar corda no relógio da esposaFor to see the old german wind up his wife's clock

O marido disse: "Agora olha aqui, Mary Ann!The husband said he, "Now look here, Mary Ann!
Não deixe esse alemão ousado entrar aqui de novo!"Don't let that bold german come in here again!"
Ele deu corda no seu relógio e deixou o meu na prateleiraHe wound up your clock and left mine in the shelf
Se seu velho relógio precisa de corda, eu mesmo dou uma mão!"If your old clock needs winding, sure I'll wind it myself!"
