Hello,

I am looking for an old song I learned as a child, but I don't know all the lyrics nor the author: it begins like this:
Hello Mrs. Nicola
Hello Miss Forza
and how's your health
and yours, miss
I just had the flu
and I had stomach cramps
fortunately my dear I have this, I have this
fortunately my dear
I have a plug of tobacco
If anyone knows the entire song, please send it to me.

    Hello, I just found this online

    Hello Mrs. Nicolas
    Hello Miss Louisa
    And how is your health?
    And yours, Miss?
    I just had the flu
    And I have stomach cramps

    Fortunately, my dear, I have this, I have this, fortunately, my dear, I have my tobacco intake

    What does your doctor order you?
    He forbids me to drink wine
    Mine poisons me with pills
    Mine poisons me with capsules

    Fortunately, my dear, I have this, I have this, fortunately, my dear, I have my tobacco intake

    I turn the light on and off
    I open and close my eyelids
    At night I pet my cat
    And I trim my dog Mirza

    Fortunately, my dear, I have this, I have this, fortunately, my dear, I have my tobacco intake

    It’s time to pack up
    To undertake the great journey
    And in heaven, what will we do?
    To Saint Peter, what will we say?

    We will say ST PETER Take this, take this, we will say Saint Peter, take my tobacco intake!

    Here is the link where I found it:

      I learned it in primary school 72 years ago. The version differs slightly:

      Hello Mrs. Nicolas,
      hi Miss Lisa,
      how is your health?
      and yours miss?
      I just had the flu
      and I have stomach cramps.

      Fortunately my dear, I have this, I have this
      fortunately my dear, I have my tobacco.

      I sleep very little, very late at night,
      I only fall asleep after midnight,
      I open and close my eyelids
      I turn off, I turn on the light
      On my bed I pet my cat
      And I have my little dog Mirza.

      Our time is almost up,
      If you are tired, I am too
      We’ll soon have to pack our bags
      To embark on the great journey
      Once we arrive up there, what will we do?
      In Saint Peter’s what will we offer?

      We will tell him: Saint Peter, take this, take this
      We will tell him Saint Peter, take my tobacco.

        It's a song my grandmother used to sing to me, I taught it to my grandchildren and today I realize that I'm missing some lines. "Hello Mrs. Nicolas
        Hello Miss Thomas
        How is your health?
        And yours, Miss?
        I just had the flu
        And I've got stomach cramps

        Luckily, my dear, I've got this, I've got this
        Here is my snuffbox, would you like some tobacco?
        Luckily, my dear, I've got this, I've got this
        Take my snuffbox, would you like some tobacco?

        What does your doctor say?
        He forbids me to drink wine
        Mine keeps giving me capsules
        He poisons me with pills
        With his powders, he will kill me
        xxxxxxxx

        Luckily, my dear (repeat)

        I sleep very little, very ... badly at night
        xxxxxxxxx too
        I open and close my eyelids
        I turn the light on and off
        On my bed, I pet my cat
        And me, my little dog Mirza

        Luckily, my dear (repeat)

        I can feel my time is near
        And I am quite worn out too
        xxxxxx
        xxxxxxx

        What will we tell Saint Peter?
        xxxx
        I will tell him, Saint Peter, I've got this, I've got this
        Take my snuffbox, would you like some tobacco?
        I will tell him, Saint Peter (repeat)

          Hello!

          Are you still interested in the lyrics of this song? If so, I know them by heart and I could write them down for you (at least my version…)

          See you soon if anyone is still interested...
