Teddy Boy

This is the story of a boy named Ted

If his mother said, "Ted, be good," he would

She told him Ted about his soldier dad

But it made her sad and she cry, "oh my"

Ted used to tell her

He'd be twice as good

And he knew he could

'Cause in his head, he said

"Mommy don't worry now, Teddy boy's here

Taking good care of you

Mommy don't worry, your Teddy boy's here

Teddy's gonna see you through"

Then came the day she found herself a man

Teddy turned and ran

Far away

Okay

He couldn't stand to see his mother in love

With another man

He didn't know

Oh no

He found a place where he could settle down

And from time to time

In his head, he said

"Mommy don't worry, now Teddy boy's here

Taking good care of you

Mommy don't worry, now Teddy boy's here

Teddy's gonna see you through"

She said, "Teddy, don't worry, now mommy is here

Taking good care of you

Teddy, don't worry, your mummy is here

Mummy's gonna see you through"

Mmh-mmh
