《Mrs McGrath (2012 - Remaster)》歌词

[00:02:21] 'Ah, misses mcgrath', the sergeant said

[00:02:21] 'Would you like to make a soldier out of your son ted

[00:02:21] With a scarlet coat and a big cocked hat

[00:02:21] And misses mcgrath, wouldn't you like that?

[00:02:21] Wid yer toori al fol the diddle ah

[00:02:21] Toori oori oori ah

[00:02:21] Wid yer toori al fol the diddl eah

[00:02:21] Toori oori oori ah

[00:02:21] Well mrs mcgrath lived by the seashore

[00:02:21] For the space of seven long years or more

[00:02:21] Till she saw a big ship sailing into the bay

[00:02:21] 'Here's my son ted, will ye clear the way?'

[00:02:21] 'Ah captain dear, and where have you been?

[00:02:21] Have you been in the mediterranean?

[00:02:21] Will ye tell me the news of my son ted?

[00:02:21] Is the poor lad living now or is he dead?'

[00:02:21] Ah, well up comes ted without any legs

[00:02:21] And in their place he had two wooden pegs

[00:02:21] Well she kissed him a dozen times or two

[00:02:21] Saying: 'glory be to God, sure it couldn't be you'

[00:02:21] 'Ah then were ye drunk or were ye blind

[00:02:21] That ye left yer two fine legs behind?

[00:02:21] Or was it while walking on the sea

[00:02:21] A big fish ate yer legs from the knees away?'

[00:02:21] 'Well I wasn't drunk and I wasn't blind

[00:02:21] When I left my two fine legs behind

[00:02:21] But a big cannonball on the fifth of may

[00:02:21] Flow my two fine legs from the knees away'

[00:02:21] 'Ah teddy me boy', the poor widow cried

[00:02:21] 'Yer two fine legs were yer mummy's pride

[00:02:21] Them old stumps of a tree wouldn't do at all

[00:02:21] Why didn't ye run for the big cannonball?'

[00:02:21] 'Well all foreign wars I do proclaim

[00:02:21] Between don john and the king of spain

[00:02:21] And by herrings I'll make them rue the time

[00:02:21] That they shot the legs from a child of mine'
