poxy boggards - itches in me britches lyrics
i was born of geordie parents
one day when i was young
that’s how the geordie dialect
became my native tongue
that i was a pretty baby
me mother, she would vow
the girls all ran to kiss me then
– i wish they’d do it now
chorus
oh, i wish they’d do it now
oh, i wish they’d do it now
i’ve got itches in me britches
and i wish they’d do it now
when i was only six months old
the girls would handle me
they’d hug me to their bosom
and they’d bounce me on their knee
they’d put me in the cradle
and if i made a row
they’d tickle me, they’d cuddle me
– i wish they’d do it now
chorus
at three years old a finer lad
there never could be seen
the girls all loved to follow me
right down to the green
they’d make a chain of b-ttercups
drop it on me brow
then they’d roll me in the clover
– well, i wish they’d do it now
chorus
the east end girls would call on me
to swim when it was mild
they’d take me to the river
for to splash about a while
they’d throw the water over me
duck me like a cow
then they’d rub me nice all over
– well, i wish they’d do it now
chorus
well, it’s awful sad and lonely
to lead a single life
i think i’ll go to the dance tonight
and find meself a wife
oh, i have got six bundle pigs
likewise one big fat sow
there’ll be plenty love and bacon
for the girl who’ll love me now
for the girl who’ll love me now
for the girl who’ll love me now
there’ll be plenty love and bacon
for the girl who’ll love me now
chorus
