the clancy brothers & tommy makem - my son ted lyrics
“oh, mrs. mcgrath,” the sergeant said
“would you like to make a soldier out of your son ted
with a scarlet coat and a big c+cked hat
oh, mrs. mcgrath, wouldn’t you like that?”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
now, mrs. mcgrath lived on the sea shore
for the sp+ce of seven long years or more
she spied a ship coming into the bay
“here’s my son teddy, wisha clear the way”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
“oh captain dear, where have you been
or have you been sailing on the mediterranean
have you any tidings of my son ted
is the poor boy living or is he dead?”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
then up came ted without any legs
and in their place, he had two wooden pegs
she kissed him a dozen times or two
“holy moses, it isn’t you”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
“now were you drunk or were you blind
when you left your two fine legs behind
or was it walking upon the say
wore your two fine legs from the knees away?”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
“no, i wasn’t drunk and i wasn’t blind
when i left my two fine legs behind
a big cannon ball on the fifth of may
tore my two fine legs from the knees away”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
“oh, teddy my boy,” the widow cried
“your two fine legs were your mammy’s pride
stumps of a tree wouldn’t do at all
why didn’t you run from the big cannon ball?”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
“all foreign wars i do proclaim
between don john and the king of spain
i’d rather have my teddy as he used to be
than the king of france and his whole navy”
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
with your too+ri+a, fol+di+diddle+da, too+ri, oor+ri, oor+ri+a
