finbar furey - new york girls lyrics
verse one:
shipmates listen unto me, i’ll tell you in my song of the things that happened to me when i come home from hong kong
chorus:
to me a-weigh, you santy, my dear annie oh, you new york gals, can’t you dance the polka?
verse two:
as i walked down on chatham street a fair maid i did meet she asked me please to see her home, she lived on bleeker street now if you’ll only come with me you can have a treat you can have a gl-ss of brandy and something nice to eat
chorus: verse three:
before we sat down to eat we had several drinks the liquor was so awful strong i quickly fell asleep
chorus: verse four:
when i awoke next morning i had an aching head my gold watch and my pocket-book and my lady friend had fled in looking round this little room nothing did i see but a woman’s shoes and apr-n which now belonged to me
chorus: verse five:
now dressed in the lady’s apr-n i wandered most forlorn till martin churchill took me in and he sent me round cape h-rn
chorus: (twice)
to me a-weigh, you santy, my dear annie oh, you new york gals, can’t you dance the polka?
