Look After Yourself

Hillary's big, she knows she is
Billy is fat, but not as fat as all that
Lost their pride on home made cakes,
sausage rolls, and second helping's

Johnny has fun, he likes his pint
His wife is kind, she lets him drink all night
At opening time he's first at the door,
he sits on his stool, the one in the corner

If I'm not there to see you do, look after yourself, look after yourself
If I'm not there to pull you through, look after yourself, look after yourself
Oh promise me...

Rosemary's sad because she has lost her man,
and lost her children
Every night she sits by the fire
knitting babies clothes, children's garments
