Song Lyrics:

Now I'll tell you a story that'll give you a shock
And it's all about a murder on a St. John's dock
The person in question was Biddie McGraw
And she strangled two men with the straps of her bra

With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya

Now it was late one night about eleven o'clock (cuckoo-cuckoo)
Late one night on a St. John's dock
Well, she wrapped her bra 'round one sailor's head
And she threw him in the river like a crust of bread

With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya

Now the other sailor stood and he laughed ha ha (giggle)
And she stuffed his mouth with the rest of her bra
His face turned purple and before he fell
So she picked up her miniskirt and run like hell

With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya

Now when Biddie got home about a quarter to one (c**k-a- doodle-doo)
Ach, she was happy and contented with a job well done
So she told the story to her Ma and Pa
Sayin', "Thanks be to God that I wore me bra"

With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya

Now come all you young girls who go walkin' late at night
Never keep the straps of your bra too tight
Just remember the story of Biddie McGraw
And you keep your hands on the straps of your bra

With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya

With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
With a too-rye-ya, boddle-deedle-dah
Too-rye-oo-rye-oo-rye-ya
