IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH
Theme song from the TV Series "In Sickness And In Health" (1985-92)
(Chas Hodges / Dave Peacock)


Chas & Dave - 1985



When we got married, I took the marriage vow
In sickness and in 'ealth I said "I do"
For richer, for poorer, till death us do part
And you said that you'd 'onour and obey me, too

But it wasn't very long before I soon found out
The one who wore the trousis was you
Now after all these years, at last I'm pushin' you about
In sickness and in 'ealth I said "I do"

When we was courtin', you used to say to me
"My darlin', I can't wait until we're wed
I'll iron all your trousis, sew buttons on your shirts
I think the world of you", that's what you said

But it wasn't very long before you changed your tune
Moan all day and night is all you do
Me dinner's always burnt when I come 'ome from up the pub
But in sickness and in 'ealth I luv ya

In sickness and in 'ealth I said "I do"

(Instrumental Break)

When we got married, I took the marriage vow
In sickness and in 'ealth I said "I do"
For richer, for poorer, till death us do part
And you said that you'd 'onour and obey me, too

But it wasn't very long before I soon found out
The one who wore the trousis was you
Now after all these years, at last I'm pushin' you about
But in sickness and in 'ealth I luv ya

In sickness and in 'ealth I said "I do"
