She Told Me to Meet Her at The Gate

One evening at a fancy ball I met a lovely girl Oh she had a lovely curl, and she was a lovely girl I saw her into a taxi and her fare she let me pay She borrowed half a crown from me and then she drove away. Chorus: And she told me to meet her at the gate Meet her at the gate, but she didn't say what gate I've been to her gate, my gate, Highgate, and Reigate Aldgate, Moorgate and I'm in such a state I've been to Margate, Ramsgate, Tollgate, and Billingsgate I can't find her anywhere And when I told a policeman, he said, "Pop round to Newgate, you might find the Lady there" She told me that her name was Ward but I found out its Rhia Oh she set my heart on fire, but she was a lovely liar Perhaps she's waiting beside the gate in awful misery To pay me back the half a crown she borrowed off of me And she told me to meet her at the gate Meet her at the gate, but she didn't say what gate I've been to her gate, my gate, Highgate, and Reigate Aldgate, Moorgate and I'm in such a state The way the beauty told me the tale was absolutely great And I'm here to tell you straight I don't believe she's got a gate For I've looked over a million gates where lovers congregate There's only one gate I've not been to, that is heaven's gate And she told me to meet her at the gate Meet her at the gate, but she didn't say what gate I've been to her gate, my gate, Highgate, and Reigate Aldgate, Moorgate and I'm in such a state
