Subject: RE: Rollicking songs for girls..
this is a song I learned from my sister. Not sure who composed it, but I know that it was part of a musical production about the life of a woman pirate.

Hoorah For Toyboys: a women's shanty

I went down to a singles bar
Looking for romance
Hoorah for toyboys, lets have one over here
And there I saw a sweet young man
And though I'd take a chance
Hoorah for toyboys, lets have one over here

Chorus:
Lets have one over here me girls
Lets have one over here
Hoorah for toyboys
Lets have one over here

His eyes were blue, his skin was soft
And curly was his hair
Hoorah for toyboys lets have one over here
His teeth were white, his jeans were tight
He had a lovely pair
Hoorah for toyboys lets have one over here

He said he'd like an older girl
To teach him all she knows
Hoorah etc.
And once you start a toyboy up
He simply goes and goes
Hoorah etc.

I took him home right there and then
To teach him all I knew
Hoorah etc.
And in my hands I quickly found
His confidence just grew
Hoorah etc.
