Lyrics for 'Old Browns Daughter' by 'Great Big Sea'
Well There Is An Ancient Party At The Other End Of Town
And He Keeps A Little Grocery Store, Ah The Ancient's Name Is Brown
And He Has A Lovely Daughter, Such A Treat I Never Saw
Oh, I Only Hope Someday To Be The Old Man's Son-in-law.

Well, Old Brown Sells From Off His Shelf Most Anything You Please
He's Got Jew's Harps For The Little Boys, Lollipops And Cheese
His Daughter Minds The Store, And It's A Treat Just To See Her Serve
I'd Like To Run Away With Her But I Don't Have The Nerve.

Chorus:
And It's Old Brown's Daughter Is A Proper Sort Of Girl,
Old Brown's Daughter Is As Fair As Any Pearl.
I Wish I Were A Lord Mayor, A Marquis Or An Earl
And Blow Me If I Wouldn't Marry Old Brown's Girl.
Blow Me If I Wouldn't Marry Old Brown's Girl.

Well, Poor Old Brown Now, Has Trouble With The Gout,
He Grumbles In His Little Parlour When He Can't Get Out
Oh, And When I Make A Purchase, Lord, And She Hands Me The Change
That Girl She Makes Me Pulverised, I Feel So Very Strange

Chorus

But Miss Brown She Smiles So Sweetly When I Say A Tender Word
Ah, But Old Brown Says That She Must Wed A Marquis Or A Lord,
And I Don't Suppose It's Ever One Of Those Things I Will Be
But By Jingo Next Election I Will Run For Trinity.

Chorus
