TESTO ORIGINALE
Take good care of what you've got
My father said to me
As he puffed his pipe and baby B.
He dandled on his knee
Don't fool with fools who'll turn away
Keep all good company
Oo hoo oo hoo
Take care of those you call your own
And keep good company
Soon I grew and happy too
My very good friends and me
We'd play all day with Sally J.
The girl from number four
Very soon I begged her won't you
Keep me company
Oo hoo oo hoo
Oo hoo oo hoo
Come marry me for evermore we'll
Be good company
Now marriage is an institution sure
My wife and I our needs and nothing more
All my friends by a year
By and by disappeared
But we're safe enough behind our door
I flourished in my humble trade
My reputation grew
The work devoured my waking hours
But when my time was through
Reward of all my efforts my own
Limited company
I hardly noticed Sally as we
Parted company
All through the years in the end it appears
There was never really anyone but me
Now I'm old I puff my pipe
But no-one's there to see
I ponder on the lesson of
My life's insanity
Take care of those you call your own
And keep good company

@Haloplayer20 They pulled off a 20's/30's vibe without making it sound corny or pretentious. Only the Beatles ever did the same. So, yes, it could have easily been a Beatles song, and that's a fact.

This song was very underrated just because it wasn't the Queen "rock" sound that people wanted at the time. This is unfortunate because this song is genius. Brian worked the guitar note-for-note into the clarinet sound you hear. I wish artists were still like that today...
