Scallywag - Jake Thackray[00:00:01]
Village scallywag blackguard of[00:00:08]
The neighbourhood [00:00:10]
No good you scandalise [00:00:13]
Your name is mud [00:00:16]
But it's no surprise [00:00:19]
They say you nick their chickens[00:00:23]
And you fish their pools [00:00:25]
Poor fools if they but knew the half that you do[00:00:28]
They'd be rather surprised [00:00:32]
Though your muddy boots flap [00:00:37]
Though your britches let the sunshine inside [00:00:40]
Susan the parson's eldest [00:00:45]
Seems to find them irresistible [00:00:47]
She's only got to give you the eye eye eye[00:00:52]
And in the by and by[00:00:55]
You'll be around after evensong on tippy-toe [00:00:59]
Tapping at her window when it gets dark [00:01:04]
You smoke your evil-smelling shag [00:01:11]
And you get drunk as a newt[00:01:13]
To boot and this mortifies the Ladies' Institute [00:01:16]
Which is no surprise [00:01:21]
And they say you plunder their washing[00:01:26]
Lines for your clothes [00:01:28]
God knows If they realised what you filch besides[00:01:31]
They'd be rather surprised [00:01:35]
You your bold brown eyes your whippy hips [00:01:40]
Your melting smile [00:01:44]
Winifred the teacher at the school is not[00:01:48]
As snooty as she'd like to make out [00:01:50]
She knows that if she gives you the eye eye eye[00:01:55]
That in the by and by[00:01:58]
You'll come early from the Pack Horse[00:02:02]
Taproom on tippy-toe [00:02:05]
Tapping at her window when it gets dark [00:02:08]
You were rowdy you were ribald at the Cricket Tea [00:02:14]
Dear me By jingo By Gad The fella's a cad [00:02:19]
Well it's no surprise [00:02:25]
And you've been seen to spit upon[00:02:28]
The magistrate's car [00:02:31]
His motor car You'll be chastised you go too far [00:02:34]
But it's no surprise [00:02:38]
For although Rosie the greengrocer's girl[00:02:42]
Curls her nose up as you swagger by [00:02:46]
Shy little slyboots she peeps when her old[00:02:51]
Man's back is turned [00:02:54]
She knows that if she gives you the eye eye eye[00:02:58]
That in the by and by [00:03:02]
You'll come tripping through her daddy's curly[00:03:05]
Kale on tippy-toe [00:03:08]
Tapping at her window when it gets dark [00:03:10]
So don't give a toss for the gossip and the tit-for-tat[00:03:16]
Chit-chat they're only upset that you're not dead yet [00:03:22]
Which is no surprise [00:03:27]
And you can let them cock their snooks at you[00:03:31]
And pooh-pooh for as I surmise they envy you[00:03:36]
And I'm not surprised [00:03:41]
It's no wonder when you wash your[00:03:46]
Back down by the riverside[00:03:49]
Even the local countess finds it hard to[00:03:53]
Look away as you scrub [00:03:57]
She's only got to give you the eye eye eye [00:04:00]
And in the by and by [00:04:04]
You'll pussyfoot through the squire's[00:04:08]
Rhododendrons on tippy-toe [00:04:10]
Tapping at her window when it gets dark [00:04:13]
Ever so dark [00:04:19]
Right dark [00:04:23]
Scallywag[00:04:27]
