Humorous drinking song. The boy is trying to talk the girl into coming out with him. All very innocent and charming, until he starts to reveal himself.
Brand new old songs of the '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s.
Lyrics
The Fair At Kenmare
Pardon me, Polly, so young and so fair
Will you come out with me to the fair at Kenmare?
You’ve got nothing to fear, the whole town will be there.
Will you come out with me in the morning?
And we’ll stop at the shop that we pass on the way
And I’ll buy you the biggest and grandest bouquet
And we’ll go to the fair, and we’ll stay the whole day.
Will you come out with me, pretty Polly?
Deidle-dee reidel-dee yeidle-dee dee
Deedle-die reedle-die yeedle die yee
Deidle-dee yeidle-dee reidle-dee dee
Will you come out with me in the morning?
And we’ll laugh and we’ll sing, and we’ll sing and we’ll dance
I’m a fair decent bloke if you give me the chance
With a couple of pints you’ll be ripe for romance.
Will you come out with me in the morning?
And late in the evening, we’ll stroll hand in hand
And I’ll steal a wee kiss at the top of the strand
Later on we’ll commit mortal sins in the sand.
Will you come out with me, pretty Polly?
Deidle-dee reidel-dee yeidle-dee dee
Deedle-die reedle-die yeedle die yee
Deidle-dee yeidle-dee reidle-dee dee
Will you come out with me in the morning?
Everyone knows what a blackguard I’ve been
Everyone knows that I’m guilty as sin
And I’m mad as a hatter, and my patience is thin
Will you come out with me in the morning?
And we’ll go to the east, and we’ll go to the west
And we’ll go to the pub that you fancy the best
And we’ll drink ‘til we drop and we’re laid to our rest
Will you come out with me, pretty Polly?
Deidle-dee reidel-dee yeidle-dee dee
Deedle-die reedle-die yeedle die yee
Deidle-dee yeidle-dee reidle-dee dee
Will you come out with me in the morning?
