[Intro]
C G D G
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Verse 1]
G G G D
skinny-malinky-long-legs had hell-of-a sweaty feet
C G D D
and in the warm weather, they were very far from sweet
G G G D
in the summer, he often wondered, why folk left him by himsel’
C G D G
but he never knew the reason, cos he had nae sense o’ smell
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Verse 2]
G G G D
skinny-malinky-long-legs was a bit of a gigolo
C G D D
he fell into competition with the second cousin Joe
G G G D
for they both took a fancy tae a lassie fae Milngavie
C G D G
and to win her sole affection, they decided they would try
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Verse 3]
G G G D
the three of them arranged they would meet at Glasgow cross
C G D D
so Josie got home early, wi’ permission o’ his boss
G G G D
he jumped intae the basin and scrubbed in tae the bone
C G D G
then he shaved aff his whiskers, and he sprinkled eau-de-cologne
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Verse 4]
G G G D
when she met the two of them, she smelt this terrible hum
C G D D
say she “there’s only one o’ you along wi' me can come,
G G G D
so tell me who’s the smell aff?, and then I’ll judge” says she
C G D G
so Josie sniffed his after-shave, says he “it’s off o’ me!”
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Verse 5]
G G G D
she turned on poor wee Josie then, and gied him a terrible snub
C G D D
say she “I think you’d better gae hame, and gie’ yersel a scrub
G G G D
she took the arm o’ skinny-malink, and they wandered all aroon’
C G D G
‘till they landed in a picture-hall, that used to be up the toon
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Verse 6]
G G G D
in the middle o’ the hall, they were very soon alone
C G D D
for the crowd and all the chucker-outs, they quickly scampered home
G G G D
but she couldnae eat his sweeties, she refused his cigarette
C G D G
says she “ma darlin’ skinny-malink, I can smell that bugger yet!”
[Chorus]
G G G D
He was neat, he was sweet, but he’d hell-of-a sweaty feet
C C D G
and they called him skinny-malinky-long-legs
[Outro]
