And my mother

is standing beside me

As I'm packing

my bags in the car

She says "please boy

no more fighting

Oh it's only gonna

do you harm"

But I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

My boy

And my brother

is standing behind me

As I'm slowly

going out my head

He says "you know

those people

don't like me

Hmm mm

why d'you wanna be

one of them?"

I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

I.... wish

I could find somebody

Ooooh

that my mother likes

Oooooh I wish

I could find somebody

That could

treat me right

But I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

Singing I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

Singing I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd

Singing I can't help it

I don't know how

I guess I'll always be

hanging round

with the wrong crowd
