Put Me Amongst The Girls

歌詞

When I was a very little boy And me mother sent me off to school I raised an awful lot of noise If the teacher put me amongst the boys I would be anything but good And then I'd sit and moping all the day A-with sighs and teardrops in my eyes To the teacher, coaxingly, I'd say Oh, teacher Put me amongst the girls Put me amongst the girls Do me a favor, do You know I'd do the same for you So won't you put me amongst the girls? Those with the curly curls A-well-a, they'd enjoy themselves and so would I If you'd put me amongst the girls Thomas Harry Jones came up to London town He meant to be a member of the police force Well, his feet were regulation feet Just the feet to ornament a beat "Tom, Tom, put your helmet on Your duty lies abeat," the sergeant said "You're tough, so get among the rough." Tom thought of Piccadilly and he sighed Oh, sergeant Put me amongst the girls Put me amongst the girls Do a-me a favor, do Well, you a-know I'd do the same for you So won't you put me amongst the girls? Those with the curly curls A-well-a, they'd enjoy themselves, and so would I If you'd put me amongst the girls Seth Biggs was such a pious man He never stayed up after two AM Stage doors, he used to hang about Till he caught a cold that knocked him out A pal said, "Cheer up, you'll soon be dead We'll plant you 'neath the daisies in the sun" Poor Seth, though gasping for his breath Said, "If there's any planting to be done..." All together now Put me amongst the girls Oh, won't you put me amongst the girls? Oh, won't you do a-me a favor, do? Well, you a-know I'd do the same for you So won't you put-a me amongst the girls? Those with the curly curls A-well-a, they'd enjoy themselves and so would I If you'd put me amongst the girls Put me amongst the girls
