Come My Little Son

C              F
Come my little son
            C        F       C
And I will tell you what to do
                           F    C
Undress yourself and get into bed
       Am                F
And a tale I'll tell to you

      C               F
It's all about your daddy
        C              Am
He's a man you seldom see
         C               F
For he had to roam, far away from home
  C        F       C
Away from you and me


   C                    F         C
Remember laddie, he's still your dad
                         Am
Though he's working far away
        C                       F
In the cold and heat, all the hours of
The week
    C         F    C
On England's motorway

 C                     F      C
Now when you fall and hurt yourself
            F      C
And get a feeling bad
C            F
It isn't any good
    C                     F
To go a running for your dad
C                        F
For the only time since you were
C                            F
Born he's had to spend with you
C                G           F       C
He was out of a job, and we hadn't a bob
                F      C
He was signing on the brew


C                   F          C
Remember laddie he's still your Dad
C                         F
And he’ll soon be home to stay
C               G      F      C
For a week or two with me and you
C                   F    C
When he’s built the motorway



C                   F     C
Sure we'd like your Daddy here; yes
        F        C
Sure it would be fine
C                   F        C
To have him working near our home, and
                   F
To see him all the time
C                    F         C
But beggars can’t be choosers, and we
                 F
Have to bear our load
C               G          F     C
For we need the money your Daddy earns
           F      C
 A-working on the roads



C                   F          C
Remember laddie he's still your Dad
C                         F
And he’ll soon be home to stay
C               G      F      C
For a week or two with me and you
C                   F    C
When he’s built the motorway

C                   F          C
Remember laddie he's still your Dad
C                         F
And he’ll soon be home to stay
C               G      F      C
For a week or two with me and you
C                   F    C
When he’s built the motorway

C               G      F      C
For a week or two with me and you
C                   F    C
