Son of a Gun Lyrics by The Vaselines

Enter the Vaselines

1987

[Verse]
Swing, swing up and down
Turn, turn, turn around
Round, round, and roundabout
And over again
Gun, gun, son of a gun
You are the only one
And no one else
Will take my place
[Chorus]
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
[Verse]
Swing, swing up and down
Turn, turn, turn around
Round, round, and roundabout
And over again
Gun, gun, son of a gun
You are the only one
And no one else
Will take my place
[Chorus]
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
[Verse]
Swing, swing up and down
Turn, turn, turn around
Round, round, and roundabout
And over again
Gun, gun, son of a gun
You are the only one
And no one else
Will take my place
[Chorus]
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
The sun shines in my bedroom
When you play
And the raining always starts
When you go away
