Luyện nghe bài hát The Unfortunate Miss Baily

In seventeen forty-two, it was in the township of Halifax
For a gentleman to partake of ratafia
was a light-flavored liquor of amazing potency
Which in middle sex
And which we is the reason for this song

Oh, Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey

A captain bold in Halifax who dwelt in country
Seduced a maid who herself one Monday in her garters
His conscience smitted him, he lost his stomach daily
He took to ratafia and thought upon Miss Bailey

Oh, Miss Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss

One betimes, he went to bed for he had caught the fever
he, "I am a handsome man and I'm a gay deceiver"
His candle just a o'clock began to burn quite palely
A ghost stepped up to his and said, "Behold, Miss Bailey"

Oh, Miss Bailey! Unfortunate, Bailey

"Avast, Miss Bailey," then he cried, "You can't me, really"
"Dear Captain Smith," the ghost replied, "You me ungenteelly
The coroner's quest goes hard with me because I've freely
And Parson Biggs won't bury me I'm a dead Miss Bailey"

Oh, Miss Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss

"Dear Mam," says he, "Since you and I must once for all accounts
I have a one note in my regimental small clothes
'Twill bribe the sexton for your grave," the ghost answered gaily
"Bless you, wicked Captain Smith, remember poor Bailey"

Oh, Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey

All's well that well, I suppose
