Has Anybody Here Seen Kelly?

"Has Anybody Here Seen Kelly?", music and lyrics by C.W. Murphy and Will Letters (1908), is a British music hall song, originally titled "Kelly From the Isle of Man". It was adapted for American audiences by William McKenna in 1909 for the American musical "The Jolly Bachelors". The song concerns an Irishwoman looking for her boyfriend.
