D5                 A5
I was born in the north of England
      B5                  G5
I was raised in a working town
  D5                          A5
I broke all the rules when I went to school
        B5                       G5
But the teachers couldn't pin me down


D5                  A5
I tried to make my parents proud
    B5                    G5
By adapting to the social powers
   D5                      A5
Oh pigs will fly, and the earth will fry
          B5                  G5
When they get me doing honest hours


B5
Snookeroo, Snookeroo
A5
Daddy's going on the booze
B5
Mother used to cut my hair
    A5
And sister used to make the news


          B5
Oh it was two rooms up and two rooms down
            A5
And we were sentenced by the wrecking crane
      D5           G5      B5
I was born on the eve of Halloween
    G5                     A5              D5
And Snookeroo, Snookeroo, Snookeroo's my name.


D5                 A5
I need someone to cook for me
    B5               G5
And turn me loose at night
D5                            A5
I could spend my life with a factory girl
           B5                G5
'Cause the factory girl's my type


D5                  A5
I hear them gossip on the street
B5                       G5
Most of what they say is true
   D5                     A5
Oh don't you know that I hear them say
                B5                  G5
There goes that lazy, no-good Snookeroo

(Repeat chorus)
