Clancy Brothers Medley (I'll Tell Me Ma / Courtin' In The Kitchen / Irish Rover) Lyrics
[00:07.88] Tell me ma when I go home
[00:09.54] The boys won't leave the girls alone
[00:11.49] They pulled my hair and stole my coat
[00:13.23] But that's alright till I get home
[00:15.18] She is handsome, she is pretty
[00:17.01] She's the belle of Belfast city
[00:18.86] She's a courting 1 2 3
[00:20.65] Please won't you tell me who is she
[00:22.36] And the wind and the rain and the hail blow high
[00:24.32] Snow comes tumbling from the sky
[00:26.35] She's as sweet as apple pie
[00:28.13] She'll get her own man by and by
[00:30.02] When she gets a man of her own
[00:31.64] She won't tell her ma till she comes home
[00:33.61] Let them all come as they will
[00:35.20] For it's Albert Mooney she loves still
[00:38.91] Come single belle and beau and to me pay attention
[00:42.52] Don't ever fall in love it's the devil's own invention
[00:46.23] For once I fell in love with lady so bewitching
[00:49.89] Miss Henreitta Belle down in Captain Kelley's Kitchen
[00:53.78] Tur a lur a lie
[00:55.57] Tur a lur a lie ee
[00:57.35] Tur a lur a lie
[00:59.10] Tur a lur a lie ee
[01:00.63] She slipped up to her room. I said "good Lord Almighty"
[01:04.35] She came back down the stairs wearing nothing but her nighty
[01:08.06] With her arms around me waist, she slightly hinted marriage
[01:11.69] When through the door in haste came Captain Kelley's carriage
[01:17.29]
[01:20.09] Tur a lur a lie
[01:21.80] Tur a lur a lie ee
[01:23.69] Tur a lur a lie
[01:25.46] Tur a lur a lie ee
[01:26.84] On the fourth of July eighteen hundred and six
[01:30.39] We set sail from the sweet home of Cork
[01:33.99] We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks
[01:37.33] For the Grand City Hall in New York
[01:41.10] Twas a wonderful craft, she was rigged fore and aft
[01:45.16] Nohow the wild winds drove her
[01:48.29] She got several blasts, she got twenty seven masts
[01:51.97] And they called her the Irish Rover
[01:55.49] We had sailed seven years when the measles broke out
[01:59.04] and the shipped lost its way in the fog
[02:02.70] And that whale of the crew was reduced down to two
[02:06.01] Just meself and the captains old dog
[02:09.89] And the ship struck a rock oh Lord what a shock
[02:15.11] The bulkhead was torn right over
[02:21.72] Turn nine times around and the pearl dove was drowned
[02:35.70] And the last of the Irish Rover
[02:39.12]
