Spanish Lady Lyrics

Spanish Lady lyrics

As I came down through Dublin City

At the hour of twelve at night

Who should I see but the Spanish Lady

Washing her feet by
candlelight

First she washed them, then she dried them

Over a fire
of amber coal

In all my life I ne’er did see

A maid so sweet about
the soul



Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for the toora
loora lay

Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for the toora loora
lay



As I came back through Dublin City,

At the hour of half
past eight

Who should I spy but the Spanish Lady

Brushing her hair
in the broad daylight

First she tossed it, then she brushed it

On
her lap was a silver comb

In all my life I ne’er did see

A maid so
fair since I did roam



Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack
for the toora loora lay

Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for
the toora loora lay



As I went back through Dublin City

As
the sun began to set

Who should I spy but the Spanish Lady

Catching
a moth in a golden net

When she saw me, then she fled me

Lifting her
petticoat over her knee

In all my life I ne’er did see

A maid so shy
as the Spanish Lady



Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for
the toora loora lay

Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for the
toora loora lay

Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for the toora
loora lay

Whack for the toora loora laddy

Whack for the toora loora
lay
