LYRICS Give a dog a bad name is a syaing that's old Often the story has never been told Take me for instance, since I was a kid people have frowned at the things that I did They called me scallywag the people always called me scallywag that's me, you see, because I'm never out of trouble It's always been the same, no matter where I go The people all give me the name of scallywag though I've got no money - scallywag I find that life is sunny, and though I'm often without a fag But if there is fighting to be done, or a battle to be won you'll find a good for nothin', tough and bluffin' scallywag AUDIO - obviously check copyright there !
