Do this in remembrance of me.
Do this in remembrance of me.
I hung out on a tree for thee, for thee,
Do this in remembrance of me.

Eat this in remembrance of me.
Eat this in remembrance of me.
I hung out on a tree for thee, for thee,
Eat this in remembrance of me.

Drink this in remembrance of me.
Drink this in remembrance of me.
I hung out on a tree for thee, for thee,
Drink this in remembrance of me.
