[00:00:00] I Met Her In The Garden Where The Praties Grow - Various

[00:00:04] Have you ever been in love me boys

[00:00:07] Or have you felt the pain

[00:00:09] I'd rather be in jail myself

[00:00:11] Than be in love again

[00:00:13] For the girl I loved was beautiful

[00:00:15] I'd have you all to know

[00:00:18] And I met her in the garden

[00:00:19] Where the praties grow

[00:00:22] She was just the kind of creature boys

[00:00:24] That Nature did intend

[00:00:26] To walk right through the world me boys

[00:00:31] Nor did she wear a chignon

[00:00:32] I'd have you all to know

[00:00:35] And I met her in the garden

[00:00:36] Where the praties grow

[00:00:43] And says I: "My pretty Kathleen

[00:00:45] I'm tired of single life

[00:00:47] And if you've no objection sure

[00:00:49] I'll make you my dear wife"

[00:00:56] "Oh you're welcome to the garden

[00:00:57] Where the praties grow"

[00:01:20] And says I: "My pretty Kathleen

[00:01:22] I hope that you'll agree"

[00:01:24] She was not like your city girls

[00:01:27] Who say you're making free

[00:01:29] Says she: "I'll ask me parents

[00:01:30] And tomorrow I'll let you know

[00:01:33] If you'll meet me in the garden

[00:01:35] Where the praties grow"

[00:02:02] And we're blessed with children three

[00:02:04] Two boys just like their mother

[00:02:06] And a girl the image of me

[00:02:10] And now we're going to train them up

[00:02:13] The way they ought to go

[00:02:14] For to dig in the garden

[00:02:16] Where the praties grow
