[00:00.37]Oh, Mary, this London's a wonderful sight
[00:06.69]With people here working by day and by night
[00:12.99]They don't sow potatoes nor barley nor wheat
[00:18.82]But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street
[00:25.50]At least when I asked them, that's what I was told
[00:31.29]So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold
[00:37.75]But for all that I've found there, I might as well be
[00:43.70]In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
[01:04.16]I believe that when writin' a wish you expressed
[01:10.40]As to how the fine ladies in London were dressed
[01:17.46]But if you'll believe me, when asked to a ball
[01:24.02]They don't wear no tops to their dresses at all
[01:30.40]Oh, I've seen them myself and you could not in truth
[01:36.98]Tell if they were bound for a ball or a bath
[01:43.46]Don't be startin' them fashions now, Mary McRee,
[01:50.03]In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
[02:23.07]There's beautiful girls here, oh, never you mind
[02:29.44]Beautiful shapes Nature never designed
[02:35.91]Lovely complexions of roses and cream
[02:42.70]But let me remark with regard to the same
[02:49.40]That if at those roses you venture to sit
[02:55.51]The colors might all come away on your lip
[03:01.97]So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me
[03:08.71]In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
[03:29.09]You remember young Danny McClaren, of course
[03:35.74]But he's over here with the rest of the force
[03:42.03]I saw him one day as he stood on the strand
[03:48.73]Stopped all the traffic with a wave of his hand
[03:55.58]As we were talking of days that are gone
[04:02.05]The whole town of London stood there to look on
[04:08.39]But for all his great powers, he's wishful like me
[04:15.28]To be back where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
