Thread Name: Lyr Req: Ugly Baby (Rob Armstrong)
Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: UGLY CHILD (from Chris Barber)
Actually dug out an old Chris Barber album - Its credited to Spencer Williams , and Ottilie Pattersons vocal is :-
C A7
You're so ugly , You're so ugly child
D7 G7 C
You're some ugly child
E7 G7
Now the clothes that you wear are not in style
D7 G
You look like an ape everytime you smile
C A7
How I hate you , you alligator bait you
D7
The homeliest thing I ever saw
F
Oh you're knockkneed pigeon toed and box ankled too
C E7 A7
There's a curse on your family and it fell on you
C A7
You're hair is nappy , Whose your Pappy ?
D7 G7 C
Your some ugly child
The vocal then repeats after some instrumental with a different last couplet :-
Your hair is yellow , whose your Fellow
You're some ugly child
And I am NOT guaranteeing the accuracy of the chord run - A Jazz Guitarist I definately aint , but they are adjacent to the tune as I know it.
