Ladybird Lyrics

Ladybird sat on my hand,
I know if you're there when I'm finished my rhyme
I'll do anything you command
Whatever I'm wishing for soon will be mine
But in our house there's no din
How I wish there was somebody in.
Ladybird, ladybird fly away home
Your house is on fire and your children are gone.
Ladybird ain't it a shame
I've not seen my father for manys the day
He comes home whenever he can
But not very much for he works far away
Last year he worked in the town
Now they're pulling the factory down.
Ladybird, ladybird fly away home

Your house is on fire and your children are gone
Ladybird ain't it a crime
Me mom she's working way down at the mill
She'll be home about supper time
She's on afternoons so I've hours to kill
But in our house there's no din
How I wish there was somebody in.
Ladybird, ladybird fly away home
Your house is on fire and your children are gone.
Ladybird don't spread thee wings
I can't understand all these words on the news
Redeployment, inflation and things
It's just like a game some win and some lose
But some of them win all the time
Me mom says that cheating's a crime.
Ladybird, Ladybird fly away home
Your house is on fire and your children are gone.
Ladybird sat on my hand
I know if you're gone when I'm finished my rhyme
I'll do anything you command
Whatever I'm wishing for soon will be mine
But in our house there's no din
How I wish there was somebody in.
Ladybird, ladybird fly away home
Your house is on fire and you're children are gone.
