Handsome Harry

Handsome Harry Handsome Harry Thomas
He was sued and sued for breach of promise
He took Mary a-walking through the dell
And told her don't you dare to tell

Mary went right home and told her mother
Ma told Pa and Pa he told her brother
Her brother told the preacher
And the preacher told the wedding bell

Don't ever take a girl named Mary
Don't ever take a girl named Sue
… girl named Maud nor Carrie
Those are just the girls that you would have to marry

If you'd want to go a-walking
A-walking through the silvery dell
Always take a girl named Daisy (spoken) Why?
(sung) Because Daisies don't tell
