Foghat - Wide Boy lyrics

Dave Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAP Baggy suit and flashy tie, blue of knuckle, red of eye, He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy. He'd sell his mother for a quid, rumour has it that he did, He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy. He used to be his father's pride, 'til he spent a year inside, He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy. Six feet from shoulder to shoulder and five feet from the ground, Iron fists, a head like a boulder - a friend like that is good to have around! At the club he's set to pounce, girls to chat and boys to bounce, He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy. Oy! {Erik - Solo} Six feet from shoulder to shoulder and five feet from the ground, Iron fists, a head like a boulder - a friend like that is good to have around! (Wide boy), wanna buy a stereo? (Wide boy), heard you got a truckload! (Wide boy), need a color TV too. (Wide boy), I'm in a spot of trouble, I need a**istance at the double, (Wide boy), it's good to have a friend like you. Never rich and never poor, (never poor) Just a step outside the law, (outside the law) He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy, He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy, He's one of the boys, he's a wide boy.
