Freckles was his name, he always used to get the blame
For every broken window pane and how they yanked him
You know they spanked him
At school he'd tease the girls, he always used to pull their curls
The way that boy would carry on, it was a shame
And when the teacher found a tack on her chair
Though a hundred children were there
Everybody said Freckles, he always got the blame
Freckles was his name...
And when the cat had kittens up in the hay
One was black and seven were grey
Everybody said Freckles, he always got the blame
