School House
There are no children in the school house, mama
There are no children in the school
You said that you went past the school house, mama
I don’t think you went there at all
It’s may day bank holiday, mama
The masters will all be in bed
I don’t think you went past the school house, mama
I think you went past daddy’s house instead
You smell like my daddy’s house, mama
Your cheeks and your fingers are red
I think you went to daddy’s house, mama
And I think that my daddy is dead
Someone will come for you, mama
I think the policemen will call
I’ll tell them I saw you by the school house, mama
I’ll tell them I was waiting by the school |
