Lyric Liverpool Lullaby

Oh you are a mucky kid
Dirty as a dustbin lid
When he hears the things that you did
You ll get a belt from your dad

You really have your old man s nose
So crimson, in the dark it glows
If you re not asleep when the boozers close
You ll get a belt from your dad

You look so scruffy lying there
Strawberry jam all through your hair
Though in the world you haven t a care
And your mummy s got so many

Oh you are a mucky kid
Dirty as a dustbin lid
When he hears the things that you did
You ll get a belt from your dad

Although you have no silver spoon
Better days are coming soon
Sister s working at the mill
And she gets her pay on friday
Perhaps one day we ll make a splash
If the irish sweeps provides the cash
We ll have a house that s oh-so posh
And buy your dad a brewery

Oh you are a mucky kid
Dirty as a dustbin lid
When he hears the things that you did
You ll get a belt from your dad

You really have your old man s face
You re growing up a real hard case
But no one else can take your place
Go to sleep for mummy
