The Lass With The Delicate Air - Josh White[00:00:00]
Now the tavern was crowded [00:00:03]
And two couples were there[00:00:07]
They were served by a lass[00:00:11]
With a rose in her hair[00:00:14]
Now her manner was charming[00:00:18]
And her beauty was rare[00:00:22]
And true did she had a most delicate air[00:00:27]
The most delicate air[00:00:33]
And they called her the lass[00:00:41]
With that delicate air[00:00:45]
Now some soldiers were passing[00:00:50]
And they looked through the glass[00:00:54]
They were struck by the charm of this delicate lass[00:00:58]
And they waited in longing [00:01:05]
Her kisses to share[00:01:09]
Cause true did she had a most delicate air[00:01:13]
The most delicate air[00:01:21]
And they toasted that lass[00:01:28]
With that delicate air[00:01:32]
Now a sailor arose[00:01:38]
Who had been everywhere[00:01:42]
He said he had never seen a lass quite so fair[00:01:46]
And he vowed he would marry[00:01:53]
That little lass then and there[00:01:57]
Cause true did she had a most delicate air[00:02:01]
The most delicate air[00:02:08]
And he wanted that lass[00:02:16]
With that delicate air[00:02:19]
Well he offered his heart[00:02:25]
And he offered his hand[00:02:29]
And he painted a future so rosy and grand[00:02:33]
Dear sir she replied [00:02:40]
Ask the bartender there[00:02:44]
That man is wed to the lass[00:02:48]
With that delicate air[00:02:51]
The most delicate air[00:02:55]
So goodbye to the lass with that delicate air[00:03:03]
