[00:00.000] 作曲 : Traditional Song
[00:01.192] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[00:05.761] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[00:08.097] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[00:10.869] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa.
[00:13.299] Mrs. McGrath, the sargent said,
[00:15.734] Would you like to make a soldier out of your son Ted?
[00:17.978] With a scarlet coat and a big cocked hat,
[00:20.210] Now Mrs. McGrath, wouldn't you like that?
[00:22.497] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[00:25.022] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[00:31.792] Now Mrs. McGrath lived on the seashore
[00:34.170] For the space of seven long years or more,
[00:36.363] Till a great big ship came sail into the bay,
[00:38.833] Says, It's my son Ted, will you clear the way,
[00:40.972] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[00:43.447] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[00:50.030] Oh captain, dear, where have you been,
[00:52.410] Have you been sailing in the Meditereen,
[00:54.790] Have you any news of my son Ted,
[00:56.949] Is the poor boy living or is he dead?
[00:59.239] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[01:01.801] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[01:08.452] Then, up steps Ted, without any legs,
[01:10.730] And in their place was some wooden pegs.
[01:13.031] She kissed him a dozen times or two,
[01:15.081] Saying, Holy Moses, is it you,
[01:17.467] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[01:20.080] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[01:26.813] Now was you drunk, or was you blind,
[01:29.092] When you left your two fine legs behind,
[01:31.234] Or was it from walking by the sea,
[01:33.473] Took your two fine legs from the knees away?
[01:35.767] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[01:38.287] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[01:45.108] No, I was not drunk, and I was not blind
[01:47.292] When I left my two fine legs behind,
[01:49.488] A cannon ball on the fifth of May,
[01:51.593] Took my two fine legs from the knees away,
[01:53.929] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[01:56.499] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[02:02.938] Oh Teddy, my boy, the widow cried,
[02:05.419] Your two fine legs were your mother's pride.
[02:07.672] The stumps of a tree won't do at all,
[02:10.009] Why didn't you run from the cannon ball?
[02:12.163] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[02:14.817] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[02:21.380] So, if I had me boy again,
[02:23.617] I'd never let him go to fight the King of Spain,
[02:25.750] I'd rather have me son as he used to be,
[02:28.051] Than you King of France and your whole navy,
[02:30.294] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[02:32.764] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[02:39.443] All foreign wars, I do proclaim,
[02:41.826] Between Don Juan and the King of Spain,
[02:44.027] By heavens I'll make them rue the time,
[02:46.213] They swept the legs from a child of mine,
[02:48.456] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[02:51.036] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa
[02:53.044] Wi your too-ri-aa, folly diddle-aa
[02:55.704] Too-ri, oo-ri, oo-ri-aa.
