Granny's always ravin' and rantin',
|
And she's always puffin and pantin',
|
And she's always screaming and shouting,
|
And she's always brewing up tea.
|
|
Grandpappy's never late for his dinner,
|
Cos' he loves his leg of beef!
|
And he washes it down with a brandy,
|
And a fresh made cup of tea.
|
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
|
If you feel a bit under the weather,
|
If you feel a little bit peeved,
|
Take Granny's stand-by potion,
|
For any old cough or wheeze.
|
It's a cure for hepatitis its a cure for chronic insomnia,
|
It's a cure for tonsillitis and for water on the knee.
|
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|

[Accordion Solo]
|
|
Tea in the morning, tea in the evening, tea at suppertime.
|
You get tea when its raining, tea when its snowing,
|
Tea when the weathers fine!
|
You get tea as a mid-day stimulant,
|
You get tea with your afternoon tea.
|
Whatever your ailment or disease,
|
For Christ sake have a cuppa tea.
|
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|
|
Whatever the situation whatever the race or creed,
|
Tea knows no segregation, no class nor pedigree,
|
It knows no motivations, no sect or organization,
|
It knows no one religion,
|
No political belief!
|
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea,
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Rosie Lea!
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Oh for Christ sake Have a cuppa tea!
