Bài hát Captain Kelly’s Kitchen Báo Lỗi

Come single guy and gal unto me pay attention

Don't ever fall in love

It's the devil's own invention

For once he fell in love with a maiden so bewitching

Miss Henrietta Bell down in Captain Kelly's kitchen


[Chorus:]

With me toora loora la, me toora loora laddie

Me toora loora la and me toora loora laddie


At the age of seventeen I apprenticed to a grocer

Not far from Stephen's Green

Where Miss Henri' used to go sir

Her manners were sublime she set my heart a-twitchin'

When she invited me to a party in the kitchen


[Chorus]


Sunday was the day that they were to have their flare-up

He dressed himself quite gay

I frizzed and oiled my hair up

The Captain had no wife and he had gone a-fishin'

She groped me on the stairs beneath the old man's kitchen


[Chorus]


Her arms around my waist she slyly hinted marriage

When to the door in haste came Captain Kelly's carriage

Her eyes were full of hate and poison she was spittin'

The Captain kicked the door in and stormed into the kitchen


[Chorus]


When the Captain came downstairs he saw my situation

In spite of all his prayers he was marched off to the station

For him they'd take no bail

To get home I was itchin'

He had to tell the tale how I came into the kitchen


[Chorus]


I said she did invite me

But she gave flat denial

For assault she did indict me and I was sent for trial

She swore he'd robbed her house

In spite of all her screechin'

I got six months hard

For his courtin' in the kitchen


[Chorus]
