{Intro] Am G Am G Am [Verse 1]
              E     Am
Oh, you are a mucky kid

           E       Am
Dirty as a dustbin lid

                      E         Am
When he finds out the things you did

             E              Am
You'll get a belt from your Dad
[Verse 2]
Dm                Am
Oh, you have your father's nose
So crimson in the dark it glows
Dm                            Am
If you're not asleep when the boozers close

             E              Am
You'll get a belt from your Dad
[Verse 3]
                    E     Am
You look so scruffy lying there

           E                 Am
Strawberry-jam tarts in your hair

                     E         Am
And in the world you haven't a care

           E      Am
And I have got so many
[Verse 4]
Dm                    Am
It's quite a struggle every day
Living on your father's pay
    Dm                    Am
The bugger drinks it all away

              E       Am
And leaves me without any
[Verse 5]
                    E      Am
Although we have no silver spoon

       E               Am
Better days are coming soon

                    E      Am
Now Nelly's working at the Lune

             E       Am
And she gets paid on Friday
[Verse 6]
Dm                    Am
Perhaps one day we'll have a bash
When Littlewoods provide the cash
Dm                   Am
We'll get a house in Knotty Ash

             E     Am
And buy your Dad a brewery
[Verse 7]
              E     Am
Oh, you are a mucky kid

           E       Am
Dirty as a dustbin lid

                      E         Am
When he finds out the things you did

             E              Am
You'll get a belt from your Dad
[Verse 8]
Dm               Am
Oh you have your father's face
You're growing up a real hard case
Dm                     Am
But there's no one can take your place

         E         Am
Go fast asleep for Mammy
