Lyrics, Part I William D. H. Nilly Yes, he's a friend of mine I never know quite when I'll see him, But to see him is divine William Nilly married Nelly Nelly Nilly three tikes bore Nelson, Ned, and Will the 2nd But on her way to number four She slipped and fell upon a hillside "William Nilly!" Nelly cried "Darling, I have always loved you" Then she gasped her last and died
Lyrics, Part III
For William he's a widower
And I, alas, a widow
And if he said he loved me
I might in fact, say 'ditto.'
Serendipity's a friend
There's pleasure in not knowing
What you might find around the bend
Where e'er you may be going

Lyrics, Part II
William Nilly, widower
Would waken in the night and weep
Missing Nelly, night or not
When wide-awake or in his sleep
Circumstance, and happenstance
And Willie Nilly knows not why
I salute, feel charmed to know him
Every time he passes by
