My Pearl's A Bowery Girl - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
MY PEARL'S A BOWERY GIRL. Copyright, 1894, by T. B. Harms & Co. Words by Wm. Jerome. Music by Andrew Mack. 
Of course, ev'ry bny has a sweetheart, And some boys they have two or three; Of all the girls in this great city There is only one "in it" with me. She lives with her folks on the Bowery, A few doors away from Canal, And helps to support her old mother. Does my little Bow'ry gal. 
Chorus. My pearl is a Bow'ry girl. She's all the world to me; She's "in it" with any the girls 'round the town, And a "corking good-looker." sect At Walhalla Hall, why, she kills them all, As waltzing together we twirl; She sets them all crazy, a "spieler," a "daisy," For my pearl's a Bow'ry girl. 
In summer we go down to "Coney's," Together we stroll 'long the beach, And sometimes we go in the ocean. For at swimming, you bet. she's a "peach." The other boys of me are jealous, But with me, way, that "cuts no ice." I'm going to lead pearl to the altar As soon as I gets the price.- Chorus.
