There's a charming Irish lady with a roguish winning way

Who has kept my heart a-bumping and a-jumping night and day

She's a flower of Killarney with a Tipperary smile

She's the best that ever came from Erin's Isle

And I find myself a-singing all the while

Bedelia, I want to steal ya

Bedelia, I love you so!

I'll be your Chauncey Oilcloth

If you'll be my Molly-o!

Say something sweet Bedelia

Your voice I like to hear

Oh Bedelia, -elia, -elia

I've made up my mind to steal ya, steal ya, steal ya

Bedelia dear!

If you love me, Bedelia, half as much as I love you

There is nothing in this world can ever cut our love in two!

I will give you all my money on the day that we are wed

I will cook for you and even bake the bread

And I'll even bring your breakfast up to bed

Bedelia, I want to steal ya

Bedelia, I love you so!

I'll be your Chauncey Oilcloth

If you'll be my Molly-o!

Say something sweet Bedelia

Your voice I like to hear

Oh Bedelia, -elia, -elia

I've made up my mind to steal ya, steal ya, steal ya

Bedelia dear!

Bedelia, I want to steal ya

Bedelia, I love you so!

I'll be your Chauncey Oilcloth

If you'll be my Molly-o!

Say something sweet Bedelia

Your voice I like to hear

Oh Bedelia, -elia, -elia

I've made up my mind to steal ya, steal ya, steal ya

Bedelia dear!
