As I was going to Derby, all on a market day
I've spied the biggest ram, sir, that ever was fed on hay

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

This tup was fat behind, sir, this tup was fat before
This tup was nine feet round, sir, if not a little more

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

And the horns upon this tup they grew, well they reached up to the sky
The eagles made their nests within, you could hear the young ones cry

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

Yes the horns that on this tup they grew, well they reached up to the moon
A little boy went up in January and he never got back till June

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

And all the men of Derby come begging for his tail
To ring St George's passing bell from the top of Derby Gaol

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

And all the women of Derby come begging for his ears
To make 'em leather aprons to last 'em forty years

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

And all the boys of Derby come begging for his eyes
To make themselves some footballs cause they were of football size

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

Took all the men of Derby to carry away his bones
Took all the women of Derby to roll away his stones

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay

And now my story is over, and I have no more to say
Please give us all a New Year's box and we will go away

La lum lay lum people lay lum lay
