The Irish Rovers - New York Girls lyrics

As I walked down the Broadway, one morning in July A met a maid, she asked my trade, a sailor John said I CHORUS And away you santy, my dear Annie Oh you New York girls, can't ye dance the polka? To Tiffany's I took her, I did not mind expense I bought her two gold earrings, they cost me fifteen cents CHORUS She said you Limejuice Sailor, now walk me home you may When we got to her cottage door she this to me did day CHORUS I kissed her hard and proper before her flashman came Goodbye you little New York Girl, I know your little game CHORUS I joined a Yankee bloodboat we sail in early morn I'll never court a maid again, I'm safer off Cape Horn CHORUS So I wrapped my glad rags 'round me and to the docks did steer Goodbye you little New York gals, I'll stick with rum and beer CHORUS
