Thread Name: Rocky Road to Dublin question
Subject: RE: Rocky Road to Dublin question
Handsome Harry, Handsome Harry Thomas,
He was sued, yes, sued for breach of promise,
He took Mary walking through the dell,
And Mary promised not to tell, but
Mary went right home and told her mother,
Ma told Pa and Pa then told her brother,
Brother told the preacher and the preacher tolled the wedding bells.
So:
Never take a walk with Mary,
Never take a walk with Sue
Never take a walk with Maud or Carrie,
That's the kind of girl you'll have to marry,
If you take a girl out walking,
Strolling through the shady dell,
Always take a girl named Daisy
'Cause daisies don't tell.
