I'm a Boy (long version from "Meaty Beaty") Songtext
von The Who

One girl was called Jean Marie
Another little girl was called Felicity
Another little girl was Sally Joy
The other was me, and I′m a boy
My name is Bill, and I'm a head case
They practice making up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair

I′m a boy, I'm a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I′m a boy, I′m a boy
But if I say I am, I get it


Put your frock on, Jean Marie
Plait your hair, Felicity
Paint your nails, little Sally Joy
Put this wig on, little boy

I'm a boy, I′m a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I′m a boy, I'm a boy
But if I say I am, I get it

Wanna play cricket on the green
Ride my bike across the street
Cut myself and see my blood
Wanna come home all covered in mud

I′m a boy, I'm a boy
But my ma won't admit it
I′m a boy, I′m a boy
But if I say I am, I get it
