Liverpool Lullaby

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] Oh, you have your father'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 [Verse 3] You look so scruffy lying there Strawberry jam tarts in your hair In all the world you haven't a care And I have got so many [Verse 4] It's quite a struggle every day Livin' on your father's pay The beggar drinks it all away And leaves me without any [Verse 5] Although you have no silver spoon Better days are coming soon Our Nellie's workin' at the loom And she gets paid on Friday [Verse 6] Perhaps one day we'll have a splash When Littlewoods provide the cash We'll get a house in Knotty Ash And buy your dad a brewery [Verse 1] 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 [Verse 7] Oh, you have your father's face You're growing up a real hard case But there's no one can take your place Go fast asleep for your mommy
