Lyrics

They all came to see,the lady from Amulree, She had traveled far,just so she could be, And she sat next to me,eating crackers and Brie, And she confided in me,that she just got a new knee, And we all got ready,to head out to sea, On that sail boat,but this trip would not be free, We'd no sooner left,and her dog had to go pee, And out there in that ocean,its hard to find a tree, Bridge But she held him over the side,and he relieved his self, And it was plain to see,she was a lady of wealth, She had told us that, her dogs name was Ralph, And we had heard before,their last name was Malph, Chorus And she was called the rose,from Amullree, And she always had time,for a cup of tea, The word had got out,that her ship had come in, And it was no secret,that she had a big win, Bridge And she told us that,her dog was her only Kin, And she had found him buried,in a recycle bin, And he turned out,to be, smart as a whip, And if you messed with her,well he'd give you a nip, As we sailed across, the ocean blue, And everything we came across,was something new, And we reached an island,it looked like paradise, She said it was hers,and she'd only been here twice, Bridge Well there was everything here,anyone could need, We could have a garden,if we had some seed, We would have this paradise,all to ourself, And we were glad this lady,well, she had some wealth, Chorus
