1. Uncle Joe cut off his toe And hung it up to dry; The ladies began to laugh And Joe began to cry. 

Chorus: Rock the cradle, rock the cradle, Rock the cradle, Joe. ’I will not rock, I shall not rock, For the baby is not mine.’ 

2. My wife is sick, my wife is sick, My wife is sick abed. You hateful Reb, you hateful Reb, There’s whiskey in your head.
