Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer

Well, I'm standin' on the corner with a bucket in my hand
I'm waitin' for a woman that ain't got no man

'Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer

Well I went up on the mountain I looked down in the sea
I seen the crabs and the fishes doin' the be-bop-bee

'Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer

(Instrumental Break)

Well there ain't no use of me workin' so hard
When I got a woman in the boss man's yard

'Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer

(Instrumental Break)

Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yeah, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer
