Bedlam Bards Queen of Argyle lyrics

Gentlemen it is my duty to inform you of one beauty,
Though I ask of you a favor, not to seek her for a while;
For I own she is a creature of character and feature,
No words can paint the picture of the Queen of all Argyll.

Chorus

And if you could have seen her there, boys if you had just been there,
The swan was in her movement and the morning in her smile,
All the roses in the garden would bow and ask her pardon
For not one could match the beauty of the Queen of all Argyll

On the evening that I mention I walked with light intention
To a part of our dear country known for beauty and for style,

Being a place of noble thinkers, of scholars and great drinkers,
But above them all, for splendor, shown the Queen of all Argyll.

Chorus

Now me lads I needs must leave you, my intention not to grieve you,
Nor would I deceive you, so I'll seek you in a while,
I must find some way to gain her, to court her and to tame her,
For I fear my heart's in danger of the Queen of all Argyll.

Chorus
