In a village in Old Siam, sir
There's a lady who lost her way
In an effort to find a man, sir
She found herself in the old UK

She waited 'round in Walthamstowe
She scouted 'round in Scarborough
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe
She scouted 'round in Scarborough

In a village in old East End, sir
She met a fellow who made her real
Took her rushes to show, this man, sir
Met his dad at the wedding meal

In a letter from Old Siam, sir
Came a terrible tale of woe
She decided the only answer
Was to get off a pile of dough

She waited 'round in Walthamstowe
She scouted 'round in Scarborough
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe
She scouted 'round in Scarborough

When a relative told her man, sir
He directed her not to stay
In a village in Old Siam, sir
There's a lady who lost her way

(There's a lady who lost her way)
