I'm Popeye The Sailor Man;

I'm Popeye The Sailor Man.
I'm strong to the "finich" cause I eat my spinach;

I'm Popeye The Sailor Man.
I'm one tough gazookus which hates all palookas,

Wot ain't on the up and square.

I biffs 'em an' buffs 'em an' always outroughs 'em,

An 'none of 'em gits nowhere.

If anyone dasses to risk my "fisk",

It's "biff' an' its "wham", un'erstan'?

So keep good behayior, that's your one life sayer,

With Popeye The Sailor Man.
