[00:00.97]Mrs. McGrath
[00:15.38]"Mrs. McGrath," the sergeant said,
[00:17.23]"Would you like to make a solider out of your son Ted?
[00:20.67]With a scarlet coat and a big cocked hat,
[00:23.31]And Mrs. McGrath, wouldn't you like that?"
[00:25.42]
[00:26.34]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[00:30.88]
[00:31.82]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[00:36.81]
[00:37.32]Now, Mrs. McGrath lived on the shore
[00:39.38]And after seven years or more
[00:41.75]
[00:42.56]She spied a ship come into the bay
[00:44.94]With her son from far away
[00:47.42]
[00:48.42]"Oh captain dear, where have you been?
[00:50.27]You've been sailing the Mediterranean.
[00:52.89]
[00:53.83]Have you news of my son Ted?
[00:55.97]Is he living or is he dead?"
[00:59.10]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[01:04.41]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[01:10.10]Up came Ted without any legs
[01:12.11]And in their place, two wooden pegs.
[01:15.37]She kissed him a dozen times or two
[01:17.55]And said, "My god, Ted is it you?"
[01:20.86]"Now were you drunk or were you blind
[01:22.93]When you left your two fine legs behind?
[01:26.31]Or was it walking upon the sea
[01:28.32]That wore your two fine legs away?"
[01:31.44]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[01:36.80]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[01:41.98]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[01:47.30]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[01:52.68]"No, I wasn't drunk and I wasn't blind
[01:54.68]When I left my two fine legs behind.
[01:57.75]A cannon ball on the fifth of May
[02:00.18]TOre my two fine legs away."
[02:03.06]"Oh, Teddy boby," the window cried.
[02:05.31]"Your two fine legs were your mother's pride.
[02:08.43]Stumps of a tree won't do at all.
[02:10.74]Why didn't you run from the cannon ball?"
[02:13.69]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[02:18.76]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[02:24.06]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[02:29.37]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[02:35.49]
[03:06.68]"All foreign wars I do proclaim
[03:08.71]Live on the blood and the mothers'pain.
[03:11.90]I'd rather have my son as he used to be,
[03:14.23]Than the King of America and his whole navy."
[03:19.35]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[03:24.30]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[03:29.59]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[03:34.85]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[03:39.47]
[03:39.98]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
[03:45.06]With your too-ri-a, fol-di-diddle-da, too-ri, oor-ri,oor-ri-a
