The Hussy’s: Sister Mary Jo

The Hussy’s (shouldn’t it be the Hussies?) is a six-piece pop/ska band from Glascow. I’m not sure if they have a proper full-length LP, but they do have a number of great singles (Tiger, Napoleon). This song, Sister Mary Jo, is from Necklace.

Some good lyric-writing here too—it tells a funny story without getting too bogged down in it, you know?

Sister Mary Jo, it’s time to let the whole world know
That you’re actually a bloke and you like to drink and smoke
Oh sister Mary Jo are you a gangster on the run?
And if I slipped into your bed will you tell the other nuns?

The Hussy’s – Sister Mary Jo

Update 8/16: An OAP is an old age pensioner. Also the bassline is really intense so turn up the sub!
