Chords with lyrics

Words: Stan Kelly


Intro : B minorBm

B minorBm      F#F#  B minorBm
Oh you are a mucky kid,
      G+G    F#F# B minorBm
Dirty as a dustbin lid.
         F#F#     B minorBm
When he hears the things you did,
    G+G   F#F#       B minorBm
You'll get a belt from your Dad.

G+G        B minorBm
Oh you have your father's nose,
      F#F#   B minorBm    BB
So crimson in the dark it glows,
G+G               B minorBm
If you're not asleep when the boozers close,
    G+G   F#F#       B minorBm
You'll get a belt from your Dad.

B minorBm         F#F#  B minorBm
You look so scruffy lying dur
          G+G     F#F#  B minorBm
Strawberry-jam tarts in yer hair,
            F#F#    B minorBm
Though in the world you haven't a care
  G+G   F#F#   B minorBm
And I have got so many.

G+G           B minorBm
It's quite a struggle every day
    F#F#   B minorBm    BB
Living on your father's pay,
G+G          B minorBm
The bugger drinks it all away
   G+G    F#F#   B minorBm
And leaves me without any.

B minorBm -> C minorCm

C minorCm          G+G    C minorCm
Although we have no silver spoon,
        AbAb   G+G   C minorCm
Better days are coming soon
          G+G   C minorCm
Now Nelly's working at the Lune
  AbAb    G+G    C minorCm
And she gets paid on Friday.

AbAb          C minorCm
Perhaps one day we'll have a splash,
      G+G    C minorCm    C majorC
When Littlewoods provide the cash,
AbAb           C minorCm
We'll get a house in Knotty Ash
  AbAb    G+G   C minorCm
And buy your Dad a brewery.

C minorCm -> C# minorC#m

C# minorC#m     AbAb  C# minorC#m
Oh you are a mucky kid,
      A augmentedA    AbAb  C# minorC#m
Dirty as a dustbin lid.
         AbAb     C# minorC#m
When he hears the things you did
    A augmentedA   AbAb       C# minorC#m
You'll get a belt from your Dad.


A augmentedA         C# minorC#m
Oh you have your father's face,
        AbAb  C# minorC#m    C#C#
You're growing up a real hard case,
A augmentedA           C# minorC#m
But there's no one can take your place,
  A augmentedA    AbAb     C# minorC#m
Go fast asleep for yer Mammy.
