Help me wash up Jean Marie
You can dry Felicity
Stack them dishes Sally Joy
Behind those scrubbed floors, I'm a boy
I'm a boy, I'm a boy, but my ma won't admit it
I'm a boy, I'm a boy but if I say I am I get it
|A |Eno3 |
I wanna play cricket on the green
|A |Eno3 |
Ride my bike across the stream
|A |Eno3
Cut myself and see my blood
|A |Eno3 | | | |
I wanna come home all covered in mud
|(D) D (E) E |(A)A (A)
I'm a boy, I'm a boy, but my ma won't admit it
