Bully in the Alley
Traditional. Arr. by Tom Lewis
(Recorded by Tom Lewis on Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Singer!)
Chorus:
Help me Bob I'm bully in the alley. Way, hey, bully in the
alley.
Help me Bob I'm bully in the alley. Bully down in Shinbone Al.
Sally is a girl that I loved dearly,
(Way, hey, bully in the alley)
Sally is a girl that I spliced nearly, (Bully down in Shinbone
Al)
For seven long years I courted Sally, (Way, hey, bully in the
alley)
All she did was dilly-dally, (Bully down in Shinbone Al)
I left Sal and I went a-sailing. (Way, hey, bully in the
alley)
Signed on a big ship, I went a-whaling, (Bully down in
Shinbone Al)
If I ever get back to her I'll marry little Sally. (Way, hey,
bully in the alley)
Have six kids and live in Shinbone Alley (Bully down in
Shinbone Al)
I thought I heard the old man saying, (Way, hey, bully in the
alley)
One more chorus then we're belaying, (Bully down in Shinbone
Al)
