Harry was a bus driver, he was a very forthright man

And it didn't come easy but the boy learned to play on a twelve pound pawn shop axe

The boys came about that mersey beat sound 
     F                           E 
With crude little sketches of guitars
 
 
 
Well they heard of a sound from a faraway land that was ruled by a cricket and a king 
But a pauper's son would one day come from twenty-five Upton Green 
And there everyday was a place to play when the final bell had rung 
And when the big day come he was just too young and they sent em' all back home  
 
Chorus 
 
Solo 
 
 
Well the wild ones don't think much of Johnny, yeah a critic's got it rough 
But you're a real king mixer and it's my train mister if you think that's all I've got 
You'll be beaten on down By mersey sound and then you'll have to choose 
Between standing on your own or singing right along with the ones no better than you
