Uncle Albert - Admiral Halsey lyrics
by Paul McCartney



We're so sorry, Uncle Albert

We're so sorry if we caused you any pain

We're so sorry, Uncle Albert

But there's no one left at home

And I believe I'm gonna rain.

We're so sorry but we haven't heard

A thing all day

We're so sorry, Uncle Albert,

But if anything should happen

We'll be sure to give a ring



Yeah, yeah,



We're so sorry, Uncle Albert

But we haven't done a bloody thing all day

We're so sorry, Uncle Albert,

But the kettle's on the boil

And we're so easily called away



Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky



Admiral Halsey notified me

He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea

I had another look and I had a cup of tea and butter pie (butter pie?)

The butter wouldn't melt so I put it in the pie



Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky



Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around)

Get your feet up off the ground

Live a little get around

Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around)

Get your feet up off the ground

Live a little, get around



Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Hands across the water (water)

Heads across the sky

Ooo------ooo-----
