Has Anybody Here Seen Kelly
Michael
Kelly with his sweetheart came from County Cork,
And bent
upon a holiday, they landed in New York.
They
strolled around to see the sights; alas, it's sad to
say,
Poor Kelly
lost his little girl upon the Great White Way.
She walked
uptown from Herald Square to Forty Second Street
The traffic
stopped as she cried to the copper on the beat:
(Chorus(
Has anybody
here seen Kelly?
K.E. double
L. Y,
Has anybody
here seen Kelly?
Have you
seen him smile?
Sure his
hair is red, his eyes are blue,
And he's
Irish through and through, Has anybody here seen Kelly?
Kelly from
the Emerald Isle
Over on
Fifth Avenue, a band began to play,
Ten thousand
men were marching for it was Saint Patrick's Day.
The "Wearing
of the Green" rang out upon the morning air,
'Twas
Kelly's favorite song, so Mary said, "I'll find him
there."
She climbed
upon the grandstand in hopes her Mike she'd see,
Five hundred
Kellys left the ranks in answer to her plea.
