Lyrics
Here they come, here they come
See them rows and rows
Raving Romeos, follow me, follow me
How they come, where they’re from
Goodness only knows!
I only know they’re here
That every one’s a dear
Hello, little girl what ho
Little girl what ho, little girl, hello!
Chorus
All my boys, every one of them
They’re all my boys
Wonderful boys, dozens and dozens
A regular throng
Simply besiege me and follow along
Because they’re all my boys
It’s the fun of them
That makes them just wonderful toys
From East side, West side
All around the town
They come in groups and troops
Wherever I trot
Up town, down town, right on the spot
I must confess I guess I worship the lot
Yes, every mother’s son of them
Every one of them
All my wonderful boys!
