Luyện nghe bài hát The Unfortunate Miss Baily

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

Oh, Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey

A bold in Halifax who dwelt in country quarters
Seduced a maid who hung one Monday in her garters
His wicked conscience smitted him, he lost his stomach
He took to drinking and thought upon Miss Bailey

Oh, Miss Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss

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

Oh, Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey

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

Oh, Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey

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

Oh, Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey

All's well ends well, I suppose
