[07:09.00]I wonder what he'll think of me
[07:09.00]I guess he'll call me the old man
[07:09.00]I guess he'll think I can lick every other fella's father
[07:09.00]Well I can
[07:09.00]I bet that he'll turn out to be the spiting image
[07:09.00]Of his dad
[07:09.00]But he'll have more common sense
[07:09.00]Than his pudding headed father ever had
[07:09.00]I'll teach him to wrestle
[07:09.00]And mad through a wave
[07:09.00]When we go in the mornings for our swim
[07:09.00]His mother can teach him the way to behave
[07:09.00]But she won't make a sissy out of him
[07:09.00]Not him
[07:09.00]Not my boy
[07:09.00]Not Bill
[07:09.00]Bill
[07:09.00]My boy Bill
[07:09.00]I will see that he's named after me
[07:09.00]I will
[07:09.00]My boy Bill
[07:09.00]He'll be tall and as tough as a tree
[07:09.00]Will Bill
[07:09.00]Like a tree he'll grow
[07:09.00]With his head held high
[07:09.00]And his feet planted firm on the ground
[07:09.00]And you won't see nobody dare to try
[07:09.00]To boss him or toss him around
[07:09.00]No pot bellied baggy eyed bully will boss him around
[07:09.00]I don't give a d**n what he does
[07:09.00]As long as he does what he likes
[07:09.00]He can sit on his hale or work on a rail
[07:09.00]With a hammer a hammerin' spikes
[07:09.00]He can ferry a boat on a river
[07:09.00]Or peddle a pack on his back
[07:09.00]Or walk up and down the streets of a town
[07:09.00]With a whip and a horse and a hack
[07:09.00]He can bourne a scowl along a canal
[07:09.00]Run a cow around a corral
[07:09.00]Or maybe bark or a carousel
[07:09.00]Of course it takes talent to do that well
[07:09.00]He might be a gem of a heavyweight
[07:09.00]Or a fella that sells you glue
[07:09.00]Or president of the United States
[07:09.00]Yeah yeah that'd be alright too
[07:09.00]HIs mother would like that
[07:09.00]But he wouldn t be president if he didn't want to be
[07:09.00]Not Bill
[07:09.00]My boy Bill
[07:09.00]He'll be tall and as tough as a tree
[07:09.00]Will Bill
[07:09.00]Like a tree he'll grow
[07:09.00]With his head held high
[07:09.00]And his feet planted firm on the ground
[07:09.00]And you won't see nobody dare to try
[07:09.00]To boss him or toss him around
[07:09.00]No fat bottomed blabby faced
[07:09.00]Fat bellied baggy eyed bastard
[07:09.00]Will boss him around
[07:09.00]And I'm d*mned if he'll marry his boss's daughter
[07:09.00]A skinny lipped virgin with blood like water
[07:09.00]Who'll give him a peck and call it a kiss
[07:09.00]And look in his eyes through a lorgnette
[07:09.00]Say why am I kickin' on like this
[07:09.00]My kid ain't even been born yet
[07:09.00]I can see him when he's seventeen or so
[07:09.00]And starting into going with a girl
[07:09.00]I can give him lots of pointers very sound
[07:09.00]On the ways to get round any girl
[07:09.00]I can tell him
[07:09.00]Wait a minute
[07:09.00]What the hell
[07:09.00]What what if he
[07:09.00]What if he's a girl
[07:09.00]Oh no
[07:09.00]Oh Bill
[07:09.00]Bill
[07:09.00]What'll I do with her
[07:09.00]What'll I do for her
[07:09.00]I' m a bum with no money
[07:09.00]You can have fun with a son
[07:09.00]But you gotta be a father to a girl
[07:09.00]It might not be so bad at that
[07:09.00]A kid with ribbons in her hair
[07:09.00]A kind of neat and petite little tin type of her mother
[07:09.00]What a pair
[07:09.00]My little girl
[07:09.00]Pink and white as peaches and cream is she
[07:09.00]My little girl
[07:09.00]Is half again as bright as girls are meant to be
[07:09.00]Dozens of boys pursue her
[07:09.00]Many a likely lad
[07:09.00]Does what he can to woo her
[07:09.00]From her faithful dad
[07:09.00]She has a few
[07:09.00]Pink and white young fellas
[07:09.00]Who coo and preen
[07:09.00]But my little girl
[07:09.00]Gets hungry every night
[07:09.00]And she comes home to me
[07:09.00]I gotta get ready before she comes
[07:09.00]I gotta make certain that she
[07:09.00]Won't be dragged up in slums
[07:09.00]With a lot of bums like me
[07:09.00]She's gotta be sheltered and fed and dressed
[07:09.00]In the best that money can buy
[07:09.00]I never knew how to get money
[07:09.00]But I'll try
[07:09.00]By God I'll try
[07:09.00]I'll go out and make it
[07:09.00]Or steal it
[07:09.00]Or take it
[07:09.00]Or die
