Steeleye Span - New York Girls слова песни
As I walked down through Chatham Streeta fair maid I did meet,She asked me to see her home--she lived in Bleecker Street.Chorus:And away you santy, my dear honey,O you New York girls, can`t you dance the polka?And when we got to Bleecker Street,We stopped at forty-four,Her mother and her sister there,to meet her at the door.Chorus:And when I got inside the house,The drinks were passed around,The liquor was so awful strong,My head went round and round.Chorus:And then we had another drink,before we sat to eat,The liquor was so awful strong,I quickly fell asleep.Chorus:([Spoken] Henry Crun: Oh, come on, Min; play that modern banjo, Min.)(Minnie Bannister: Ya pa pa pa pa....)When I awoke next morningI had an aching head,There was I, Jack all alone,Stark naked in me bed.Chorus:My gold watch and my pocketbookAnd lady friend were gone;And there was I, Jack all alone,Stark naked in the room.Chorus:On looking round this little room,There`s nothing I could see,But a woman`s shift and apronThat were no use to me.Chorus:With a flour barrel for a suit of clothes,Down Cherry Street forlorn,There Martin Churchill took me in,And sent me `round Cape Horn.Chorus:Sam Waring
