The Redcoats — The Dum Dum Song lyrics

Lyrics

When I was young once not long ago
I hurt meself and how I cried so
And then me Pop heard me and said be strong
Instead of cryin' try to sing a song, son
And then he sang one …
And it went dum, dum, dum-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum, dum dum dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum, dum-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum, dum dum dum-dum
Now through the years I still recall the wise words of me Dad
And when I feel a tear come on I sing his song
And things don’t seem so bad …
Oh, oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
My friends all tell me that I’m a fool
Although I love her she treats me cruel
They say she’s not true when I’m not there
And she’s told them she doesn’t care about me
When she’s without me …
I’m singin' dum, dum, dum-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum, dum dum dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum, dum-dum-dum-dum
Dum-dum, dum dum dum-dum
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
