Mrs. Murphy's Chowder

Won’t you bring back, won’t you bring back
Mrs. Murphy’s chowder
It was tuneful, every spoonful,
Made you yodel louder
After dinner Uncle Ben, used to fill his fountain pen
From a bowl of Mrs. Murphy’s chowder

There was: Ice cream, cold cream, benzene, gasoline
Soup beans, string beans, floating all around,
Sponge cake, beef steak, mistake, stomach-ache
Cream puffs, ear muffs many to be found
Silk hats, door mats, bed slats, democrats,
Cow bells, door bells, beckon you to dine,
Meat balls, fish balls, moth balls canon balls, 
Come on in, the chowder’s fine.

Won’t you bring back, won’t you bring back
Mrs. Murphy’s chowder
It was tuneful, every spoonful,
Made you yodel louder
 If they had it where you are, you might find a motor car
In a bowl of Mrs. Murphy’s chowder

There was: Ice cream, cold cream, benzene, gasoline
Soup beans, string beans, floating all around,
Sponge cake, beef steak, mistake, stomach-ache
Cream puffs, ear muffs many to be found
Silk hats, door mats, bed slats, democrats,
Cow bells, door bells, beckon you to dine,
Meat balls, fish balls, moth balls canon balls, 
Come on in, the chowder’s fine.
