The Queen Of All Argyle
Andrew M. Stewart This is a favorite at faires and events...Am Dm
Gentlemen it is me duty to inform you of one beauty
Am G
Though I'd ask of you a favor not to seek her for a while
Am Dm
Though I own she is a creature of character and feature
Am Dm Em Am
No words can paint the picture of the Queen of all ArgyleChorus
Am Dm
And if you could have seen her there! Boys, if you had just been there!
Am G
The swan was in her movements and the mornin’ in her smile
Am Dm
All the roses in the garden, they bow and ask her pardon
Am Dm Em Am
For not one could match the beauty of the Queen of all ArgyleAm Dm
On the evening that I mentioned I passed with light intention
Am G
Through a part of our dear country known for beauty and for style
Am Dm
In the place of noble thinkers, of scholars and great drinkers
Am Dm Em Am
But above them all for splendor shone the Queen of all Argyle Chorus...Am Dm
So my lads I needs must leave you - my intentions no' to grieve you
Am G
Nor indeed would I deceive you. Oh I'll see you in a while .
Am Dm
I must find some way to gain her, to court her and attain her
Am Dm Em Am
I fear my heart's in danger from the Queen of all Argyle Chorus (twice)
