Baggy suit and flashy tie, blue of knuckle, red of eye,
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy.

He´d sell his mother for a quid, rumour has it that he did,
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy.

He used to be his father´s pride, ´til he spent a year inside,
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy.

Six feet from shoulder to shoulder and five feet from the ground,
Iron fists, a head like a boulder - a friend like that is good to have around!

At the club he´s set to pounce, girls to chat and boys to bounce,
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy.
Oy!

[Erik - Solo]

Six feet from shoulder to shoulder and five feet from the ground,
Iron fists, a head like a boulder - a friend like that is good to have around!

(Wide boy), wanna buy a stereo?
(Wide boy), heard you got a truckload!
(Wide boy), need a color TV too.

(Wide boy), I´m in a spot of trouble,
I need assistance at the double,
(Wide boy), it´s good to have a friend like you.

Never rich and never poor, (never poor)
Just a step outside the law, (outside the law)
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy,
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy,
He´s one of the boys, he´s a wide boy.
