  • Where did you get that hat,
    Where did you get that tile?

    Isn't it a funny one or
    Just the proper style?

    I would like to have one,
    Just the same as that.

    Where'er I go they shout "'Ello!"
    Where did you get that hat?

    Where did you get that hat,
    Where did you get that tile?

    Isn't it a funny one or
    Just the proper style?

    I would like to have one,
    Just the same as that.

    Where'er I go they shout "'Ello!"
    Where did you get that hat? Lyrics from a song in Public Domain
