[Bb] [Eb] Well I tell me dick, there's something [Bb] strange, ay, something [Eb] strange at that.
[Ab] It weren't so [Eb] very long [F] ago, me mam were [Bb] big and fat.
[Ab] When I asked her [Eb] why, well she just [F] smiled and she said, lad, [Bb] use your head.
[Eb] Or soon [Ab] you'll have a brother, [Bb] perhaps, or something [Eb] else instead.
[Gm] [Eb] [Gm]
[Eb] Well now me mam, she looks the [Bb] same as I think she [Eb] used to be.
[Ab] But it weren't a [Eb] brother that I [F] got, but a last dick [Bb] I tell thee.
[Ab] A sister, [Eb] ay, me call her [F] Rose, there's none can [Bb] know me shame.
[Eb] Me mam says [Ab] that it weren't her [Bb] fault, and me gran says [Eb] God's to blame.
[Bb] [Eb] [Gm] [Eb] It's smaller than me auntie's [Bb] dog, and it's got no [Eb] teeth at all.

[Ab] And there's something [Eb] else I'll tell you [F] dick, well it's not like [Bb] me or thee.

[Bb]
[Eb] [Gm] [Eb] And I darest go inside the [Bb] house for a fear of [Eb] making a din.
[Ab] Inside [Eb] it's cot, it sleeps [F] all day, and it's cries all [Bb] night like sin.
[Ab] Me [Cm] mam says come on [Eb] play with [F] it, it won't do [Bb] you no harm.
[Eb] But every [Ab] time I pick it [Bb] up, it jobbies [Eb] down me arm.
[Gm] [Bb] [Eb]
[Gm] [Eb] And when me goes out for a [Bb] walk, and me all [Eb] in me best.
[Ab] Neighbours [Eb] come and look at [F] child, and then say [Bb] how's the pest.
[Ab] Well I tell you [Eb] dick, it is a [F] cheek, for you know I'm [Bb] good as gold.
[Eb] If I had me [Ab] way I'd send it [Bb] back before it [Eb] gets too old.
[Gm] [Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] So I tell you dick, if you should [Bb] see your mam she's [Eb] getting fat.
[Ab] Don't take a chance [Eb] to wait and see, [F] but get upstairs [Bb] and pack.
[Ab] And I'll come with [Eb] you that I will, [Cm] we'll go to [Bb] London town.
[Eb] Hee I wish me mam [Ab] she were a cat, [Bb] so the bobby could [Eb] be [Ab] drown.
