    We will go "tandom" as man and wife,
    Daisy Daisy,
    "ped'ling away down the road of life,
    I and my Daisy Bell.
    When the road's dark we can both despise,
    P'licemen and "lamps" as well,
    There are "bright lights" in the dazzling eyes,
    Of beautiful Daisy Bell.
    Chorus.

    I will stand by you in "wheel" or woe,
    Daisy, Daisy.
    You'll be the bell(e) which I'll ring you know?/knots?
    Sweet little Daisy belle
    You'll take the "lead" in each "trip" we take,
    Then if you don't do well,
    I will permit you to use the brake,
    My beautiful Daisy Bell.
    Chorus.
