WHO THREW THE OVERALLS IN MISTRESS MURPHY�S CHOWDER
By: Geo. L. Geifer
Bing Crosby
Key: C
Time: 2/4
3 3 4 -5 4 -3 3 2
Mis-tress Mur-phy gave a par-ty
2 -2 3 -3 3 2 3
Just a-bout a week a-go.
4 4 4 -4 -3 -4 4
Ev-�ry-thing was plen-ti-ful,
4* -5 5 -4 -3 3
The Mur-phys, they're not slow.
3 4 -5 4 -3 3 2 2
They treat-ed us like gen-tle-men;
-2 3 3 3 2 3
We tried to act the same,
4 4 4 4 -4 -3 -4
And on-ly for what hap-pened...
4 -5 6 5 -5 -4 4
Well, it was an aw-ful shame.
4 -4 -4 -3 -4 4 5* -5 5* -5
When M-rs. Mur-phy dished the chow-der out,
-5* 6 5 -4 -3 3
She faint-ed on the spot;
3 -3 3* -3 -4 4 -4 4
She found a pair of o-ver-alls
4* 4* -5 4 -4 -3 3
At the bot-tom of the pot.
3 4 -5 4 -3 3 2 2
Tim No-lan he got rip-ping mad,
-2 3 -3 3 2 3
His eyes were bulg-ing out,
3 4 4 4 -4 -3 -4 4
He jumped up-on the pi-an-o
-5 6 5 -5 -4 4
And loud-ly he did shout:
4 4 -3 3 2 2
"Who threw the o-ver-alls
-2 3 -3 3 -2 2 3
In Mis-tress. Mur-phy's chow-der?"
4 4 -4 -3 -3 3
No-bod-y spoke, so he
-2* -3 -5 4 -4 3
Shout-ed all the loud-er.
4 -5 6 5 -5 -4 4
"It's an I-rish trick that's true,
4 -4 -3 -4 4 -3 3
I can lick the mick that threw
3 4 4 4 -4 -3 -4 5 6 -5 5
The o-ver-alls in Mis-tress Mur-phy's chow-der."
They dragged the pants from out the soup
And laid them on the floor;
Each man swore upon his life,
He'd ne'er seen them before.
They were plastered up with mortar
And had patches on the knee,
They'd had their many ups and downs
As we could plainly see.
And when Mrs. Murphy, she came to,
She b'gan to cry and pout,
She'd put them in the wash that day
And forgot to pull them out.
McGinty, he excused himself
For what he said that night,
So we put music to the words
And sang with all our might:
"Who threw the overalls
In Mrs. Murphy's chowder?"
Nobody spoke, so we
Shouted all the louder.
"It's a rotten trick that's true,
And we'll lick the drip that threw
The overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder."
