Jack Nanny

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My mum is forty-five Still got that joke in her eye Brown eyes, dark hair Walk in and people stare London girl, through and through Got that block-by-block view Quick with a laugh, quick with a grin She lights the whole room from within [Pre-Chorus] She says, “Don’t test me” Then she cracks me up Turns a bad day sweet With one little shrug [Chorus] Jack nanny, Jack nanny That’s my mum, that’s my honey Jack nanny, Jack nanny Funny bone, heart so sunny Jack nanny, Jack nanny London born, London lovely Jack nanny, Jack nanny My daughter’s hero, plain and funny [Verse 2] My little girl runs in Shouting that name again “Jack nanny, where are you?” And she beams like she always do From the bus stop to the shop She’s got stories she can drop A wink, a tease, a little sass She makes the hard days pass [Pre-Chorus] She says, “Come here, love” And the world feels light With her brown-eyed smile Everything’s alright [Chorus] Jack nanny, Jack nanny That’s my mum, that’s my honey Jack nanny, Jack nanny Funny bone, heart so sunny Jack nanny, Jack nanny London born, London lovely Jack nanny, Jack nanny My daughter’s hero, plain and funny [Bridge] She’s got that laugh That fills the hall She’s got that way To catch us all Forty-five and fearless Still the life of the scene My mum, my mate My queen of the routine [Chorus] Jack nanny, Jack nanny That’s my mum, that’s my honey Jack nanny, Jack nanny Funny bone, heart so sunny Jack nanny, Jack nanny London born, London lovely Jack nanny, Jack nanny My daughter’s hero, plain and funny [Outro] Jack nanny My mum Jack nanny London through and through
