Folk songs tell a story

   The Unfortunate Miss Bailey - - A captain bold from Halifax - Once left his captain quarters, - Seduced a maid who hanged herself - One morning in her garters. - His wicked conscience smitted him, - He lost his stomach daily - He took to drinking turpentine - And thought upon Miss Bailey. - |: Oh! Miss Bailey, unfortunate Miss Bailey! :| - 2. One night while sleeping on his ship, - The captain heard a banging, - He left his bed and went on deck, - And saw Miss Bailey hanging. - His timepiece stopped at Midnight - And his candle burned quite palely. - And from the mast a ghost stepped down, - Behold it was Miss Bailey. - |: Oh! Miss Bailey, unfortunate Miss Bailey! :| - 3. Away, Miss Bailey, he implored, - You don't affright me, really, - Dear Captain Smith, the ghost replied, - You've used me ungenteely. - The coroner was hard on me, - Because I acted fraily, - The Parson would not bury me, - Though I'm a dead Miss Bailey - |: Oh! Miss Bailey, unfortunate Miss Bailey! :|
