Misheard Lyrics:
I'm clear, undetermined as any soul of Amsterdam
Won't you come, Jimmy Way, too me thaw me all meander man?
I dig my prize battalion to the famous Alexander, ma'am.
Won't you come, Jimmy Way, too me thaw me all meander man?
I dig my prize battalion to the famous Alexander, ma'am.
Original Lyrics:
I'm cool an' determined as any salamander, ma'am,
Won't you come to my wake when I go the long meander, ma'am?
I'll think myself as valiant as the famous Alexander, ma'am.
Won't you come to my wake when I go the long meander, ma'am?
I'll think myself as valiant as the famous Alexander, ma'am.
Old Irish folk song.
