Swinging On A Gate
Composer(s): Harry Hemsley
Performer(s): Harry Hemsley
I wish I was a little boy
But then you see I'm not
I'm very fond of little boys
I know an awful lot
I like the sort of games they play
I think they're really great
But the game that I like playing best
Is swinging on a gate
Swinging on a gate
With a lot of boys
Swinging on the gate
Don't we make a noise
Nurse is very cross
'Cause I come home late
Says I is a naughty girl ("Winnie! Winnie")
For swinging on a gate
Children's Voices:
("Hello - here's a gate")
("Ooh it's a bit like...........isn't it")
("I'm on first")
("No, no, I'm on first")
("Don't push")
("I'm not pushing")
("Now we're off!")
Man's Voice:
("Oi! Get off that gate, do you hear me?")
I don't care much for little girls
They never make a noise
I like to shout and holler out
That's why I'm with the boys
I hold right on climbing trees
And bird-nesting I hate
The game that I like playing best
Is swinging on a gate
Swinging on a gate
With a lot of boys
Swinging on the gate
Don't we make a noise
Nurse is very cross
'Cause I come home late
Says I is a naughty girl ("Winnie! Winnie")
For swinging on a gate
Swinging on a gate
With a lot of boys
Swinging on the gate
Don't we make a noise
Nurse is very cross
'Cause I come home late
Says I is a naughty girl ("Winnie! Winnie")
For swinging on a gate
