Well my Mother died when I was only two years old
G Em C D

Me Sister is a prostitute, me Brother’s doing life in jail, still
C D G D
Could have been worse, I could have been born a Mackem

[Verse 2]

Peter Reid could have been my Dad

And because all the worry, I’ve lost all of my hair, still
C D G
Could have been worse, I could have been born a Mackem

C D
So that is why I’m glad to sing this song
