Irish Folksongs - Courtin in the kitchen

Tekst :

Come single belle and beau, unto me pay attention
Don t ever fall in love, tis the devil s own invention
For once I fell in love with a maiden so bewitchin
Miss Henrietta Bell down in Captain Kelly s kitchen

Chorus:
With me too-rah-loo-rah-lay, me too-rah-loo-rah-laddie
With me too-rah-loo-rah-lay, me too-rah-loo-rah-laddie

At the age of seventeen I was prenticed to a grocer
Not far from Stephen s Green where Miss Henri used to go sir
Her manners were so fine, she set me heart a twitchin
When she invited me to a hooley in the kitchen

Sunday being the day we were to have the flare up
I dressed meself quite gay and I frizzed an oiled me hair up
The captain had no wife and he d gone off a fishin
So we kicked up the highlife below the stairs in the kitchen

With me arms around her waist, she slyly hinted marriage
When to the door in haste came Captain Kelly s carriage
Her looks told me full well and they were not bewitchin
That she wished I d get to hell, or somewhere from the kitchen

She flew up off my knees, full five feet up or higher
And over head and heels threw me slap into the fire!
My new Repealer s coat, that I bought from Mr. Stichen
With a thirty-shilling note, went to blazes in the kitchen

I grieved to see my duds, all besmeared with smoke and ashes
When a tub of dirty suds right in my face she dashes
As I lay on the floor still the water she kept pitchin
Till the footman broke the door, and marched down into the kitchen

When the Captain came downstairs though he seen me situation
Despite all me prayers I was marched off to the station
For me they d take no bail though to get home I was itchin
And I had to tel

    Piosenki o miłości

    Piosenki o miłości są takie banalne
    Ale to jak go rzuciłaś było banalne bardziej
    Ciągle nie mógł Cię zrozumieć
    A tak niewiele chciałaś
    Parę miłych słów, jedno ciepłe spojrzenie

    Teraz on zachowuje się jak gówniarz
    Zachowuje się trywialnie
    Pyta twoich koleżanek co u Ciebie słychać
    Chciał pobić chłopaka z...

    Gone with the sin

    I love your skin oh so white
    I love your touch cold as ice
    And I love every single tear you cry
    I just love the way you re losing your life

    Ohohohohoh my Baby, how beautiful you are
    Ohohohohoh my Darling, completely torn apart
    You re gone with...

    Brother can you spare a dime

    Once I built a railroad, made it run
    made it race against time
    once I built a rairoad, now it s done
    brother can you spare a dime?
    once I built a tower to the sun
    brick and rivet and lime
    once I built...

    The strangest thing

    Take my life
    Time has been twisting the knife
    I don t recognize people I care for
    Take my dreams
    Chldish and weak at the seams
    Please don t analyse, please just be there for me

    The things that I know nobody told...

    I want your sex (part II)

    Oh so much love
    That you’ve never seen
    Let’s make love
    Put your trust in me

    Don’t you listen to what they told you
    Because I love you
    Let me hold you
    Oh

    I’m not your brother
    I’m not...
