《She Fought Like a Tiger for ’Er ’Onour》歌词

[00:00:00] She Fought Like a Tiger for 'Er 'Onour - Gracie Fields

[00:00:19] She was a country maiden

[00:00:21] And he was the squire's son

[00:00:24] But a villain of the deepest dye was he

[00:00:29] She fell for his endearments and

[00:00:32] She thought he was her one

[00:00:34] But he was just as bad as bad could be

[00:00:39] They courted in the farmyard

[00:00:41] Every night at half-past six

[00:00:44] She trusted him till one dark night

[00:00:47] He tried his monkey tricks

[00:00:51] She fought like a tiger for her honour

[00:00:56] For her honour for her honour

[00:01:01] She fought like a tiger for her honour

[00:01:06] But the villain still pursued her to the end

[00:01:10] The bitter end

[00:01:15] He promised he would wed her

[00:01:17] And she thought he'd keep his word

[00:01:19] So forgave him 'cause he'd such a winnin' way

[00:01:25] But one night in the moonlight

[00:01:27] After mixin' lemon curd

[00:01:30] She walked with him through fields of new-mown hay

[00:01:35] When near a five-barred gate he said

[00:01:38] "Let's rest awhile on this "

[00:01:40] The trouble started once again when he said

[00:01:44] "Give us a kiss "

[00:01:47] She fought like a tiger for her honour

[00:01:51] He said "Gertia I won't hurt ya "

[00:01:57] She fought like a tiger for her honour

[00:02:01] But the villain still pursued her to the end

[00:02:05] The bitter end

[00:02:09] Once more he tried his nonsense

[00:02:11] At the squire's Christmas ball

[00:02:14] While the village band was playing "Tiger Rag "

[00:02:19] She'd been drinkin' gin and

[00:02:20] Cider poured in shandy cup and all

[00:02:24] Then he gave her a doped Egyptian fag

[00:02:29] She didn't mind him shakin' 'an's

[00:02:32] When it was time to go

[00:02:34] But when he tried to kiss her underneath the mistletoe

[00:02:40] Well she fought like a tiger for her honour

[00:02:46] For her honour for her honour

[00:02:52] She fought like a tiger for her honour

[00:02:56] But the villain still pursued her to the end

[00:03:01] The bitter end
