I've had nights I will never forget
I've had nights I will always regret
But I can take it on the chin and say
Boys will be boys

There's been girls that've stolen our hearts
But their arms simply couldn't be prised apart
They'll never let us in and say
Boys will be boys

Well it's under my skin so I can never win
Oh thanks a lot
We cheat and we lie and we fight we don't cry when we try

I've felt driven and I've felt obliged
I've had feelings like a thorn in my side
I hope you'll never let us down now
Boys will be boys

Flooded by sorrow I can hardly restrain
Everywhere there's guilt laboured with pain
Chin up, chin up, now
Boys will be boys

And me say, you better move out the way
Me come for keep the people, them rockin and swayin
I'm well serious, I never ever play
Boys will be boys and there's nuttin' you can say, whey
Spread the word across the land
Must make people understand
I wish I had a magic wand
Make people unite and live as one
This goes out to all da gal dem
And it might send you round the bend
But boys will be boys listen right till the end

Well it's under my skin so I can never win
Oh thanks a lot
We cheat and we lie and we fight we don't cry when we try

Boys will be boys
Boys will be boys till the end
