Help me, Bob, I’m bully in the alley
Way, hey, bully in the alley
Help me, Bob, I’m bully in the alley
Bully down in Shinbone Al’
Well, Sally is the girl that I love dearly
Way, hey, bully in the alley
Sally is the girl that I’d splice nearly
Bully down in Shinbone Al’
For seven long years I courted Sally…
All she did was dilly in the dally…
I bought her silks, I bought her laces
I took her out to all the fine places
Well, I’ll leave Sal and I’ll be a sailor
I’ll leave Sal and ship aboard a whaler
When I get back I’ll marry Sally
We’ll have kids and count them by the tally
