Album: Pure McCartney
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
We're so sorry if we caused you any pain.
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But there's no one left at home
And I believe I'm gonna rain.
We're so sorry, but we haven't heard a thing all day,
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But if anything should happen
We'll be sure to give a ring.
"We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day.
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But the kettle's on the boil
And we're so eas'ly called away."
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh,
Doo-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh,
Uh-uh -
Hands across the water, heads across the sky,
Hands across the water, heads across the sky.
Admiral Halsey notified me,
He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea.
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and a butter pie.
"Butter pie?"
"The butter wouldn't melt, so I put it in the pie, alright!"
Hands across the water, heads across the sky,
Hands across the water, heads across the sky.
Live a little, be a gypsy, get around,
Get your feet up off the ground,
Live a little, get around.
Live a little, be a gypsy, get around,
Get your feet up off the ground,
Live a little, get around.
Hands across the water, heads across the sky,
Hands across the water, heads across the sky.
