Subway To Sally - The Queen of Argyll lyrics

rate me

Gentlemen, it is my duty

to inform you of one beauty

though I‘d ask of you a favour

oh‘ to seek her for a while

though I own she is a creature

of character and feature

no worse could paint the picture

of the queen of all Argyll

and if you could see 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

they‘d bow and ask her pardon

for not one could match the beauty

of the queen of all Argyll

on the evening th =at I mention

I passed with light intention

through 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 splendour

was the queen of all Argyll

and if you could ...

so my lads I need must leeve you

my intention‘s not to grieve you

nor indeed would I deceive you

but I‘ll see you in a while

I must find a way to gain her

to court her and to tame her

I fear my heart‘s in danger

of the queen of all Argyll

and if you could ...
