Liverpool lullaby (2003 remaster)

Oh you are a mucky kid
Dirty as a dustbin lid.
When he hears the things that you did
Youll get a belt from yer dad.
Oh, you have your fathers nose
So crimson in the dark it glows.
If youre not asleep when the boozers close
Youll get a belt from yer dad.
You look so scruffy lying there
Strawberry jam tarts in your hair.
In all the world you havent a care
And I have got so many.
Its quite a struggle every day
Livin on yer fathers pay.
The beggar drinks it all away
And leaves me without any.
Although you have no silver spoon
Better days are coming soon.
Our Nellys working at the loom
And she gets paid on Friday.
Perhaps one day well have a splash
When Littlewoods provide the cash.
Well get a house in Knotty Ash
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
Youll get a belt from yer dad.
Oh you have your fathers face
Youre growing up a real hard case.
But theres no one can take your place
Go fast asleep for your mummy.
