There's a charming Irish lady with a roguish winning way
Who has kept my heart a-bumping and a-jumping night and day
She's a flower of Killarney with a Tipperary smile
She's the best that ever came from Erin's Isle
And I find myself a-singing all the while
Bedelia, I want to steal ya
Bedelia, I love you so!
I'll be your Chauncey Oilcloth
If you'll be my Molly-o!
Say something sweet Bedelia
Your voice I like to hear
Oh Bedelia, -elia, -elia
I've made up my mind to steal ya, steal ya, steal ya
Bedelia dear!
If you love me, Bedelia, half as much as I love you
There is nothing in this world can ever cut our love in two!
I will give you all my money on the day that we are wed
I will cook for you and even bake the bread
And I'll even bring your breakfast up to bed
Bedelia, I want to steal ya
Bedelia, I love you so!
I'll be your Chauncey Oilcloth
If you'll be my Molly-o!
Say something sweet Bedelia
Your voice I like to hear
Oh Bedelia, -elia, -elia
I've made up my mind to steal ya, steal ya, steal ya
Bedelia dear!
Bedelia, I want to steal ya
Bedelia, I love you so!
I'll be your Chauncey Oilcloth
If you'll be my Molly-o!
Say something sweet Bedelia
Your voice I like to hear
Oh Bedelia, -elia, -elia
I've made up my mind to steal ya, steal ya, steal ya
Bedelia dear!
