"Baby Faroukh" lyrics

Billy Bragg & The Blokes Lyrics

"Baby Faroukh"

Standing, standing up for the first time
Baby Farouk is here
Walking, walking all on his own
Baby Farouk draws near
Join us now in celebration
To each child a generation

Climbing, climbing over the wall
Baby Farouk is high
Dancing, dancing out in the hall
Baby Farouk can fly

Bringer of joy and tribulation
To each child a generation

Sleeping, sleeping sound in his cot
Baby Farouk he glows
Plant a seed of love in my heart
Baby Farouk, it grows
To each woman and man a child
To each child a generation
