Desmond Dekker & The Aces, "Israelites"
Misheard Lyrics:
Get up in the morning, baked beans for breakfast
Sold out to every monk and beefhead
Oooooooh, me ears are alight!
Why find me kids, they buck up and a-leave me
Darling cheese head I was yards too greasy
Oooooooh! Me ears are alight!
or
Get up in the morning, baked beans for breakfast
Sold out to every monk and beefhead
Oooooooh, me ears are alight!
Why find me kids, they buck up and a-leave me
'Darling', she said, 'I was yours to receive'
Oooooooh! Me ears are alight.
Original Lyrics:
Get up in the morning slaving for bread sir
So that every mouth can be fed
Poor, poor me-Israelite.
My wife and ma kids dem pack up an' a leave me
'Darlin', she said, 'I was yours to be seen'
Poor, poor me-Israelite.
