Karaoké Liverpool Lullaby Cilla Black

Oh, you are a mucky kid dirty as a dustbin lid

When he hears the things that you did you'll get a belt from your dad

Oh, you have your father's nose so, crimson in the dark it glows

If you're not asleep when the boozers close you'll get a belt from your dad

You look so scruffy lying there strawberry jam tufts in your hair

In all the world you haven't a care and I have got so many

It's quite a struggle every day livin' on your father's pay

The beggar drinks it all away and leaves me without any

Although you have no silver spoon better days are coming soon

And Nellie's workin' at the Lune and she gets paid on Friday

Perhaps one day we'll have a splash when Littlewoods provide the cash

We'll get a house in Knotty Ash and buy your dad a brewery

Oh, you are a mucky kid dirty as a dustbin lid

When he hears the things that you did you'll get a belt from your dad

Oh, you have your father's face you're growing up a real hard case

But there's no one can take your place go fast asleep for your mommy
