george gershwin - the jolly tar and the milkmaid lyrics
there was a jolly british tar
who met a milkmaid bonnie
he said, “how beautiful you are!”
with a hey and a nonny
with a hey and a nonny
“such golden hair i ne’er did see
with lips to sham the cherry
oh buxom milkmaid, marry me!”
with a down and a derry
with a down and a derry
“our hearts could rhyme,” said she
“’tis flattered i’m,” said she
“but oh, ah me, you see, you see, you see, you see
i happen to be a mother of three
a wife already and mother of three
of three, of three, of three, of three, of three
the mother of three!”
the jolly tar, he laughed a laugh
“’tis for the best, my bonnie
that you won’t be my better half.”
with a hey and a nonny
with a hey and a nonny
“i near forgot on seeing you
that i’ve a wife in kerry
in spain and also timbuktu.”
with a down and a derry
with a down and a derry
“you’ve got me thinkin’ twice
goodbye to shoes and rice
for oh, ah me, you see, you see, you see, you see
i happen to be, i happen to be
the husband of three
a-spliced already and husband of three
of three, of three, of three, of three, of three
the husband of three!”
