Hullabaloo-Belay

Burl Ives — Hullabaloo Belay
Me mother kept a boarding house,
Hullabaloo belay
Hullabaloo bela belay.
And all the boarders were out to make,
Hullabaloo belay.
There was a young fellow named Shallo Brown,
Hullabaloo, etc.
Followed me mother all over the town,
Hullabaloo, etc.
One day when me father was on the Crown,*
Me mother ran off with Shallo Brown,
Me father said to me, «Me boy»
To which I quickly made reply,
Me father slowly pined away,
Me mother came back on the very next day.
