Teddy Boy

This is the story of a boy named Ted
If his mother said, "Ted, be good," he would
She told him Ted about his soldier dad
But it made her sad and she cry, "oh my"
Ted used to tell her
He'd be twice as good
And he knew he could
'Cause in his head, he said

"Mommy don't worry now, Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy don't worry, your Teddy boy's here
Teddy's gonna see you through"

Then came the day she found herself a man
Teddy turned and ran
Far away
Okay

He couldn't stand to see his mother in love
With another man
He didn't know
Oh no

He found a place where he could settle down
And from time to time
In his head, he said

"Mommy don't worry, now Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy don't worry, now Teddy boy's here
Teddy's gonna see you through"

She said, "Teddy, don't worry, now mommy is here
Taking good care of you
Teddy, don't worry, your mummy is here
Mummy's gonna see you through"

Mmh-mmh
