[00:00:00] When Irish Girls Grow Up - Tom Russell (汤姆罗素)

[00:00:15] Darling don't go to the city

[00:00:19] You'll get lost there in the crowd

[00:00:22] All the boys there in the city

[00:00:25] Drink and smoke and talk too loud

[00:00:29] The women in the city sneak their whiskey from a cup

[00:00:35] Oh is'nt it a pity when Irish girls grow up

[00:00:42] Have you heard of Mary Gilligan

[00:00:46] She's gone about three weeks

[00:00:49] She's painted up her lips

[00:00:52] When all the colour's left her cheeks

[00:00:55] She never goes to Mass no more

[00:00:59] She gave her virtue up

[00:01:02] Oh is'nt it a pity when Irish girls grow up

[00:01:09] Have you heard about the Cooneys

[00:01:12] The Russell's and Malloy's

[00:01:15] Their girls all left the farm

[00:01:18] And went a chasing city boys

[00:01:22] Their mothers pray to Mary

[00:01:25] That their girls won't turn corrupt

[00:01:29] Oh is'nt it a pity when Irish girls grow up

[00:01:35] And its God forgive me gossiping

[00:01:39] But I swear that it's all true

[00:01:42] The Lord should strike me dead

[00:01:44] Should this beset the likes of you

[00:01:48] Your lips will not touch alcohol

[00:01:52] It's tea that you shall sup

[00:01:55] Oh is'nt it a pity when Irish girls grow up

[00:02:28] So Darling don't go to the city

[00:02:31] You'll get lost there in the crowd

[00:02:35] All the boys there in the city

[00:02:37] Drink and smoke and talk too loud

[00:02:41] And the women in the city sneak their whiskey from a cup

[00:02:47] Oh is'nt it a pity when Irish girls grow up

[00:02:54] Oh is'nt it a pity when Irish girls grow up
