lirik lagu red-haired mary – the celtic tenors
[verse 1]
as i was going to the fair of dingle one fine morning last july
when going down the road before me
a red*haired girl i chanced to spy
i went up to here, said
“aye young lady, my donkey he will carry two”
she looked at me, her eyes did twinkle
her cheeks they were a rosy hue
“well, thank you kindly sir”, she answered
then she tossed her bright red hair
“seeing that you’ve got your donkey”
“i’ll ride with you to the dingle fair”
but when we reached the town of dingle
i shook her hand to say good*bye
a tinker man stepped up beside me
and belted me in my left eye
[chorus]
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight we’ll lie in our marriage bed
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight we’ll lie in our marriage bed
[verse 2]
now i was feeling kind of peevish
my poor eye was kinda sore
i tapped him lightly with my hobnails
he flew back through murphy’s door
he went off to find his brother
the biggest man you e’er did meet
he gently tapped me with his knuckles
and i was minus two front t**th
and red*haired mary kept on smiling
“i’ll go with you, young man”, she said
“never mind the priest this very morn”
“tonight, we’ll lie in murphy’s shed”
[chorus]
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight, we’ll lie in our marriage bed
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight, we’ll lie in our marriage bed
[bridge]
a policeman came around the corner
he told me i had broke the law
the donkey kicked him in the knee
and he fell down and broke his jaw
now through the fair we rode together
my black eye and her red hair
smiling alely at the tinker
weren’t we the happy pair
[chorus]
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight, we’ll lie in our marriage bed
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight, we’ll lie in our marriage bed
[outro]
keep your hands off red*haired mary
she and i are to be wed
we were with the priest this very morn
tonight, we’ll lie in our marriage bed
