settle down my boy

Colin Hay

Settle down, an eat your peas and gravy, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Stop wasting all your time with running around the town
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Knuckle down and find a job and take some responsibility
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
The future's something you should be thinking about
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down

Look around for a wife to start a family, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Listen toy our father and he'll tell you the same as me
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down

Your words would go in one ear and out the other side
Don't say my head was empty and I had things to hide

And you better put away something for your old age
So settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down uh huh huh
