Paul McCartney
Teddy Boy (1969 Glyn Johns Mix)

[Intro: Paul McCartney]
"Mommy, don't worry now, Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you"
"Mama, don't worry, your Teddy boy's here
Teddy's going to see you through"
It just goes that
"Ted's gonna see you through"

[Verse 1: Paul McCartney]
This is the story of a boy named Ted
If his mother said, "Ted, be good", he would
She told him tales about his soldier dad
But it made her sad
And she cried, oh my

[Refrain: Paul McCartney]
Ted used to tell her he'd be twice as good
And he knew he could, cause in his head, he said
"Mommy, don't worry now, Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy, don't worry now, Teddy boy's hеre
Teddy's going to see you through"

[Verse 2: Paul McCartney]
Then camе the day, she found herself a man
Teddy turned and ran
Oh, far away, oh yeah
He couldn't stand just to be around
So, he left the town, far away, yeah, yeah
[Bridge: Paul McCartney]
Within the day, la-de-da-di, run
Oh now, c'mon Teddy boy
You know, baby boy, nah-nah, oh-nah-nah

[Refrain: Paul McCartney]
"Mommy, don't worry now, Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy, don't worry, your Teddy boy's here
Teddy's going to see you through"

[Chorus: Paul McCartney]
And she said
"Teddy, don't worry, now mommy is here
Taking good care of you"
"Teddy, don't worry, now your mommy is here
Mommy's gonna see you through"
And he said, "Mama, mama, don't worry, cause Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy, don't worry, now Teddy boy's here
Teddy's going to see us through"

[Interlude: John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
Take your partners and do-si-do
Hold them tight and don't let go (La-la-la, la-la-la)
When you've got it, jump up (Oh yeah)
Take your partners and do-si-do (La-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
When you got it, then let it go (La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
Hold them tight then (Oh yeah)
[Refrain: Paul McCartney]
Now Ted used to tell her he'd be twice as good
And he knew he could
Cause in his head, he said
"Mommy, don't worry now, Teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy, don't worry now, Teddy boy's here
Teddy's going to see you through"

[Chorus: Paul McCartney]
And she said, "Teddy, don't worry, cause mommy is here
Taking good care of you"
"Teddy, don't worry, your mommy is here
Mommy's gonna see you through"

[Outro: Paul McCartney]
