Lyrics




Hush
Ha-ha-ha
Years ago I knew a man
He was my mother's biggest fan
We used to walk beside the sea
And he told me how life would be
When I grew up to be a man
Oh, and years ago we used to play
He used to laugh when I ran away
And if I fell and hurt my knee
He would run to comfort me
And the pain would go away
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom-pee, too-doo-too-doo, whoa-bo
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom-pee, too-doo-too-doo, whoa-bo
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom-pee, too-doo-too-doo, whoa-bo
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom-pa-dee-bom
Yee-hah, ah
Years ago I knew a boy
He was his daddy's pride and joy, pride and joy
But when the daddy went away
It was such a rainy day
That he brought out all his toys
And now the mother did explain
Tryin' to take away the pain
But he just couldn't understand
That his father was not a man
And it all was just a game
The years have passed and so have I
Makin' it hard for me to cry
And if and when I have a son
That it all be said and done
Let the sadness pass him by
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom-pee, bop-lop-bom-doh
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bom-pee, bop-lop-bom-doh
Bo-doh-doh-doh, bomp-bomp, bee-op, bomp-bomp
Bee-omp, bomp-pa-doh-da-doh-pa-doh, bop-bop
Bop-ah-dop-bee-doo-bee-bop-bop, doo-bee-doo-bop-bop
My old man is a good man
He does the best that he can
My old man is a good man
He does the best that he can
Your old man is not as good as my old man
My old man, he's a heck of a lot better than your old man
My old man and your old man
My old man
