Uncle Admiral Halsey Lyrics

UNCLE ALBERT / ADMIRAL HALSEY as recorded by Paul McCartney

We're so sorry Uncle Albert
We're so sorry if we caused you any pain
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But there's no one left at home
AndI believe it's going to rain

We're so sorry but we haven't heard a thing all day
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But if anything should happen we'll be sure to give a ring

We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But the kettle's on the boil and we're so easily called away

-CHORUS-
Hands across the water
Heads across the sky
Hands across the water
Heads across the sky

Admiral Halsey notified me
He had to have a birth or he couldn't get to sea
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and a butter pie
The butter wouldn't melt so I put it in the pie

CHORUS

Live a little be a gypsy, get around
Get your feet up off the ground
Live a little, get around
Live a little be a gypsy, get around
Get your feet up off the ground
Live a little, get around

CHORUS

Copywright 1971 Paul and Linda McCartney
