Thank you, mum
  Your rascal son
  Has seen the error of his ways
  I stole your purse and smashed the crocks
  You done my trousers washed my socks
  Dragged me screaming to the doc's
  Drink your medicine, chicken pox
  Put your toys back in their box
  Didn't mean it
  Thank you, mum
  
  Thank you, mum
  Your naughty boy
  Will do his best to make amends
  I hurt you merely to amuse
  You wiped my nose and cleaned my shoes
  Put witch-hazel on my bruise
  Have you done your number twos?
  Mind you watch your P's and Q's
  Got a fiver?
  Thank you, mum
  
  Thank you, mum
  You dear old girl
  Through thick and thin you knit and purl
  There isn't any better mum
  Than my mum in this whole world
