Cos I never did workin' from mornin' till night
And my money didn't seem to ever come out right, no no
Papa was a tramp - but he was a lover too
So why can't I do like papa do, alright, like papa do
Like papa do now, 'cos I'm his son, why can't I be like my Daddy
Low down, you're nasty!
Alright, if you wanna call me that - go ahead, I guess papa was too
Just common on take, nobody's miss
I get mad in a minute and jump in your chest, low down alright
Papa was too - but he was a lover too
So why can't I do like my papa do, alright, like papa do now
Like papa do, 'cos I'm his son, I wanna be like Daddy, be like my Daddy
Poll! Alright, call me poll too, 'cause papa was, oh yes he was
Just covered that holes in both of my shoes
And I cover them holes with the daily news, papa was poll
He was a lover too - so why can't I do like my papa do, alright
Like papa do now, like my papa do
'Cos I'm his son, can't you understand
I wanna be like my Daddy, be like my Daddy
For I'm his son now, and don't you mess with me now
I'm just common on a hang around and do nothin'
But news paper in my shoes, I done cover them holes
But baby, I'm a lover .....
