Thinking of things my Mam used to say, I must have been a headache...
Mind your dress, don’t sit in the tar Stay near the house and don’t go too far Don’t chalk on the pavement, stop bouncing that ball Come out of the entry, don’t dare climb the wall Pick up your marbles, don’t rattle the tin And don’t look like that, or you’re coming in Get off the drainpipe, come away from the grate Pull your socks up, you do look a state Come to Mum, let’s wipe your face I’ll get the brush to put your hair in place Play with your doll and try to keep clean You are a mucky girl our" Jean” |
