I'm not stuck up or proud, I'm just one of the crowd A good turn I'll do when I can A local doctor one night needed something put right And he wanted a handy man There's nothing proud about me, I dashed round as quick as can be A girl on the couch said "I'm fearing the worst Had I better take just a few things off first I think I need overhauling", I answered, "So I see But first of all the truth I must tell I've called to look at your front street door bell But I don't mind if I overhaul you as well There's nothing proud about me "Out in Persia one day, that's a long way away I found that I hadn't a cent For a bed then I thought, well the Sultan's a sport To his palace at once I went There's nothing proud about me, I'm fond of good company The harem was full up with wives of all kind I said, "I'm sure room for me they can find The Sultan need not be jealous, a good lad I will be One hundred wives he's got so it's said There must be some place to lay down my head I don't mind turning in at the foot of the bed There's nothing proud about me
