Intro: My father was a judge, A solitary man, He beat me to cry, With the back of his hand I played with my sisters, He said I played to rough, It seems to me son, I didn't beat you enough No good________ They said i'm no good No good________ They said son your no good I went for my schooling, and I faced the wall, "Tommy Burns" said the Teacher, can you hear me at all I sweep out the hallways, and I sweep out the grounds, And the boss he tells me, that I'm late on my rounds No good________ They say i'm no good No good________ They say i'm no good I once had a songbird, with a broken wing, I cried and cried, oh it never would sing I once had a songbird, the apple of my eye, I put it in the Killing Jar, Just to watch it die I once had a sweetheart, caught her running around, I hit her with a log chain, and I put her in the ground I once had a sweetheart, Oh a pretty little thing, I knelt in her cold grave, and I took back my ring |No good________ |They say i'm no good x4 No good________ I'm no good
