Текст песни Knickers Of Corduroy

I'm a decent, married woman, my name is Mrs. Magee I'm a native of this County Down convenient to Donaghadee I had a faithful husband oh whom I liked so fine But now he's gone and left me, and I'm nearly out of my mind Chorus: He wears a pair of laceless shoes, knickers of corduroy He's a swallowtail coat and waistcoat, he's only got one eye His hair and whiskers both are black, he wears a castor hat And can anyone kindly tell me, have they seen my darling Pat? Oh the morning that we parted the tears rolled in his eye Saying, "Biddy dear, I'm going away my fortune for to try They say the harvest is pretty good in Scotland this year So Biddy dear, I'll send you the price of a pint, don't you be feared" (Chorus) Oh if I can find a postbox as soon as I arrive You may expect a letter as sure as I'm alive But my Pat's away three months today and he's left me in a stew Since I lost my darling husband, oh what am I to do? (Chorus) 1
