Lyrics for Boys (Shirelles cover) as interpreted by Ice

Boys (Shirelles cover) Lyrics
I been told when a boy kiss a girl
Take a trip around the world
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop, m'bop bop shoo-wop)
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop, m'bop bop shoo-wop)
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop) yeah, she say you do (bop shoo-wop)
My girl says when I kiss her lips
Gets a thrill through her fingertips
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop, m'bop bop shoo-wop)
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop, m'bop bop shoo-wop)
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop) yeah, she say you do (bop shoo-wop)
Well, I talk about boys
Don't you know I mean boys
Well, I talk about boys, now
Ah, boys
Well, I talk about boys, now
What a bundle of joy (all right, George!)
My girl says when I kiss her lips
Gets a thrill through her fingertips
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop, m'bop bop shoo-wop)
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop, m'bop bop shoo-wop)
Hey, hey (bop shoo-wop) yeah, she say you do (bop shoo-wop)
Well, I talk about boys
Don't you know I mean boys
Well, I talk about boys, now
Ah, boys
Well, I talk about boys, now
What a bundle of joy!

This song was originally recorded by The Shirelles, a girl group, hence why it's about "Boys". This was one of Ringo's first vocal attempts with The Beatles, and remains one of his fans favourites.

John once said that this song sort of made Ringo uncomfortable to sing but they didn't want to change the song title. They got another one for him to sing. I think it was 'Act Naturally'.

It's about Ringo coming out of the closet I think...

Ringo didn't come out of the closet. If he's gay, he's never said so... yet! But anyway, I just love his drumming in this one, and I always am a fan of the Ringo songs...

is it just me or does it sound very un-ringo-ish? just the voice...doesnt sound like him really.
and yeah, funny how he sings about boys. but that doesn't mean he's gay, obviously.

My free interpretation: this guy (Ringo) has commitment issues with his girl and is now more intersted in boys because there's not as much commitment involved.

The song could've been gayer if they totally stuck to the original lyrics, which would've been lots of fun.

Paul said he was a little hesitant to sing this song because it sounded like a gay song but he said that's 1 thing about youth you just don't care. He said the song was obviously talking about boys kissing girls. not each other.
