Текст песни Joe Dolan — Westmeath Bachelor Simplified Version Song Writer Anonymous + аккорды для гитары
Вступление [Verse] C C F C Oh, I am a Westmeath bachelor and my age is sixty-three, G7 C I don't intend to marry or to raise a family. C C F C I'm happy and contented just to lead a single life, G7 C And that's the reason why I don't intend to take a wife. C C F C With the red stuff on her finger-nails and varnish on her toes, G7 C The red around her auld visage and the whitewash on her nose, C C F C She can get a fancy barber to shave her neck and head, G7 C And that's why I'm a bachelor and I don't intend to wed. [Verse] C C F C Last Thursday at the market in the town of Mullingar. G7 C A friend, he introduced me to a famous movie star. C C F C She'd was married several times before to men of every creed, G7 C And she thought she had found a sucker in the bachelor from Westmeath. C C F C With the red stuff on her fingernails and the varnish on her toes, G7 C The red around her auld visage and the whitewash on her nose, C C F C She can get a fancy barber to shave her neck and head, G7 C Sure that's why I'm a bachelor and don't intend to wed. [Verse] C C F C Now, I'm living with me brother and his little cat and dog G7 C I'm earning seven and six a week, a-working on the bog C C F C Why should I change this life of ease for one of struggle and strife G7 C And that's the reason why I never took a wife. C C F C With the red stuff on her fingernails and the varnish on her toes, G7 C The red around her auld visage and the whitewash on her nose, C C F C She can get a fancy barber to shave her neck and head, G7 C Sure that's why I'm a bachelor and don't intend to wed.
