"Mrs. McGrath," the sergeant said,[00:00:15]

"Would you like to make a solider out of your son Ted?[00:00:17]

With a scarlet coat and a big cocked hat,[00:00:20]

And Mrs. McGrath, wouldn't you like that?"[00:00:22]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:00:26]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:00:31]

Now, Mrs. McGrath lived on the shore[00:00:37]

And after seven years or more[00:00:39]

She spied a ship come into the bay[00:00:42]

With her son from far away[00:00:44]

"Oh captain dear, where have you been?[00:00:48]

You've been sailing the Mediterranean.[00:00:50]

Have you news of my son Ted?[00:00:53]

Is he living or is he dead?"[00:00:55]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:00:59]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:01:04]

Up came Ted without any legs[00:01:10]

And in their place, two wooden pegs.[00:01:12]

She kissed him a dozen times or two[00:01:15]

And said, "My god, Ted is it you?"[00:01:17]

"Now were you drunk or were you blind[00:01:20]

When you left your two fine legs behind?[00:01:22]

Or was it walking upon the sea[00:01:26]

That wore your two fine legs away?"[00:01:28]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:01:31]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:01:36]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:01:42]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:01:47]

"No, I wasn't drunk and I wasn't blind[00:01:52]

When I left my two fine legs behind.[00:01:54]

A cannon ball on the fifth of May[00:01:57]

TOre my two fine legs away."[00:02:00]

"Oh, Teddy boby," the window cried.[00:02:03]

"Your two fine legs were your mother's pride.[00:02:05]

Stumps of a tree won't do at all.[00:02:08]

Why didn't you run from the cannon ball?"[00:02:10]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:02:13]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:02:18]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:02:24]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:02:29]

"All foreign wars I do proclaim[00:03:06]

Live on the blood and the mothers'pain.[00:03:08]

I'd rather have my son as he used to be,[00:03:11]

Than the King of America and his whole navy."[00:03:14]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:03:19]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:03:24]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:03:29]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:03:34]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:03:40]

With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a[00:03:45]
