Lou Gottlieb In seventeen forty-two, it was customary in the township of Halifax, for a gentleman to partake occasionally of ratafia which was--a light-flavored liquer of amazing potency--which originated in Middlesex and which we suppose is the reason for this song. Chorus: Oh, Miss Bailey! Unfortunate, Miss Bailey! A captain bold in Halifax, who dwelt in country quarters, seduced a maid who hung herself one Monday in her garters. His wicked conscience smitted him. He lost his stomach daily. He took to drinking ratafia and tho`t upon Miss Bailey. (Chorus) One night betimes he went to bed for he had caught the fever. Said he, "I am a handsome man and I`m a gay deceiver." His candle just a twelve o`clock began to burn quite palely. A ghost stepped up to his bedside and said, "Behold, Miss Bailey!" (Chorus) "Avast, Miss Bailey," then he cried, "you can`t affright me, really." "Dear Captain Smith," the ghost replied, "you used me ungenteelly. The coroner`s quest goes hard with me because I`ve acted freely and Parson Biggs won`t bury me tho` I`m a dead Miss Bailey." (Chorus) "Dear Ma`am," says he, "since you and I must once for all accounts close, I have a one pound note in my regimental small clothes. `Twill bribe the sexton for your grave." The ghost then answered gaily, "Bless you, wicked Captain Smith, remember poor Miss Bailey!" (Chorus) "All`s well that ends well, I suppose."
