Gonna look after my boys?
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] off with my soul boy?
And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] out with my soul boy?

Nancy, this is the last time I call
Before I leave home
And Nancy, there's a check under the door
You volunteered, it was your choice

And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] out with my soul boy?
And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] off with my soul, ah

Nancy, you know my daughter needs a will
She's always dying, oh no
And Sammy, he's always [bad word] to school
And his brain is full of hate
I don't think that I can take it

Look after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] out with my soul, babe?
And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] off with my soul, girl?

They ain't gonna hurt you, though

Nancy, don't forget to lock the gate after midnight
'Cause Nancy, you know my mother's getting gray
She'll take the boys so far away
I'll be alone

Are you gonna look after my boys?
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] out with my soul, girl?
And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] off with my soul boy?

And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] out with my soul?
And after my boys---
Are you gonna look after my boys?
And after my baby
So she [bad word] off with my soul boys?
