I was raised in better days, mostly by myself 
No-one ever took the time or was inclined to help 
Mother dear, she was never near, she left me to the street 
little boy who was not too tall, with dirty hands and feet 
Little Old Jack, you best stay back; Susie keep away 
Though my life was lily-white, was all I heard them say 
Hey hey 
Now I'm grown, I'm on my [bad word] free and wild 
Not inclined to be entwined with a Mrs and a child 
Though my dear it may seem [bad word]  it keeps me in the black 
Should you depart to break my heart, don't bother looking back 
Little Old Jack, you best stay back; Susie keep away 
Though my life was lily-white, it's all I heard them say 
Hey hey... get in! 
Now I'm grown, I'm on my [bad word] free and wild

Little Old Jack, you best stay back; Susie keep away

Hey hey... oh! 
Little Old Jack, you best stay back; Susie keep away 
Though my life was lily-white, was all I heard them say 
Little Old Jack, you best stay back; Susie keep away 
Little Old Jack, you best stay back; was all I heard them say 
Oh... Little Old Jack, you best stay back; Susie keep away 
Little Old Jack, you best stay back; was all I heard them say
