Verse 1

Don't want to be a fat man

People would think that I was just good fun

Would rather be a thin man

I am so glad to go on being one

Chorus

Too much to carry around with you

No chance of finding a woman who

 Will love you in the morning and all the night time too

Verse 2

same as Verse 1)

Don't want to be a fat man

Have not the patience to ignore all that

Hate to admit to myself

Half of my problems came from being fat

Chorus

Won't waste my time feeling sorry for him

I see the other side through being thin

Roll us both down a mountain and sure the fat man would win
