An Americanized version of this song has been posted in another thread. Who knew that the original Kelly was not Irish? This is the original music-hall version, transcribed by me from the recording by Florrie Forde:

1. Kelly and his sweetheart wore a very pleasant smile
As bent upon a holiday, they went from Mona's isle.
They landed safe in London, but alas, it's sad to say,
For Kelly lost his little girl up Piccadilly way.
She searched for him in vain and then of course began to fret,
And this is the appeal she made to ev'ryone she met:

CHORUS: Has anybody here seen Kelly, K-E-double-L-Y?
Has anybody here seen Kelly? Find him if you can.
He's as sad as old Antonio,
Left me on my own-e-o.
Has anybody here seen Kelly, Kelly from the Isle of Man?

At last she found herself outside the Houses of Parliament.
She got among the suffragettes who chained her to the grill,
And soon they heard her shouting in a voice both loud and shrill: CHORUS
