《Scallywag》歌词

[00:00:01] Scallywag - Jake Thackray

[00:00:08] Village scallywag blackguard of

[00:00:10] The neighbourhood

[00:00:13] No good you scandalise

[00:00:16] Your name is mud

[00:00:19] But it's no surprise

[00:00:23] They say you nick their chickens

[00:00:25] And you fish their pools

[00:00:28] Poor fools if they but knew the half that you do

[00:00:32] They'd be rather surprised

[00:00:37] Though your muddy boots flap

[00:00:40] Though your britches let the sunshine inside

[00:00:45] Susan the parson's eldest

[00:00:47] Seems to find them irresistible

[00:00:52] She's only got to give you the eye eye eye

[00:00:55] And in the by and by

[00:00:59] You'll be around after evensong on tippy-toe

[00:01:04] Tapping at her window when it gets dark

[00:01:11] You smoke your evil-smelling shag

[00:01:13] And you get drunk as a newt

[00:01:16] To boot and this mortifies the Ladies' Institute

[00:01:21] Which is no surprise

[00:01:26] And they say you plunder their washing

[00:01:28] Lines for your clothes

[00:01:31] God knows If they realised what you filch besides

[00:01:35] They'd be rather surprised

[00:01:40] You your bold brown eyes your whippy hips

[00:01:44] Your melting smile

[00:01:48] Winifred the teacher at the school is not

[00:01:50] As snooty as she'd like to make out

[00:01:55] She knows that if she gives you the eye eye eye

[00:01:58] That in the by and by

[00:02:02] You'll come early from the Pack Horse

[00:02:05] Taproom on tippy-toe

[00:02:08] Tapping at her window when it gets dark

[00:02:14] You were rowdy you were ribald at the Cricket Tea

[00:02:19] Dear me By jingo By Gad The fella's a cad

[00:02:25] Well it's no surprise

[00:02:28] And you've been seen to spit upon

[00:02:31] The magistrate's car

[00:02:34] His motor car You'll be chastised you go too far

[00:02:38] But it's no surprise

[00:02:42] For although Rosie the greengrocer's girl

[00:02:46] Curls her nose up as you swagger by

[00:02:51] Shy little slyboots she peeps when her old

[00:02:54] Man's back is turned

[00:02:58] She knows that if she gives you the eye eye eye

[00:03:02] That in the by and by

[00:03:05] You'll come tripping through her daddy's curly

[00:03:08] Kale on tippy-toe

[00:03:10] Tapping at her window when it gets dark

[00:03:16] So don't give a toss for the gossip and the tit-for-tat

[00:03:22] Chit-chat they're only upset that you're not dead yet

[00:03:27] Which is no surprise

[00:03:31] And you can let them cock their snooks at you

[00:03:36] And pooh-pooh for as I surmise they envy you

[00:03:41] And I'm not surprised

[00:03:46] It's no wonder when you wash your

[00:03:49] Back down by the riverside

[00:03:53] Even the local countess finds it hard to

[00:03:57] Look away as you scrub

[00:04:00] She's only got to give you the eye eye eye

[00:04:04] And in the by and by

[00:04:08] You'll pussyfoot through the squire's

[00:04:10] Rhododendrons on tippy-toe

[00:04:13] Tapping at her window when it gets dark

[00:04:19] Ever so dark

[00:04:23] Right dark

[00:04:27] Scallywag
