Up In Keswick

Lyrics:

Bis || O the girls are awfully sweet up in Keswick. O the girls are awfully sweet, but you ought to see their feet For, for size they can't be beat, Up in Keswick.

Bis || O they grow potatoes small up in Keswick. O they grow potatoes small and they dig them in the fall, And they eat them skins and all, Up in Keswick.

Bis || O they chew tobacco thin up in Keswick. O they chew tobacco thin and it trickles down their chin, And they lick it up agin', Up in Keswick.

Bis || O they make good apple pie up in Keswick. O they make good apple pie but it comes so very high, When you "pinch" an apple pie, Up in Keswick.
