MY IRISH MOLLY-O

(Click here to listen to 'My Irish Molly-O')

Molly dear now did you hear the news that's going round
Down in a corner of my heart a love is what you've found
And every time I look into your Irish eyes so blue
They seem to whisper 'darling boy, my love is all for you'

Oh Molly, my Irish Molly, my sweet-a-cushla dear
I'm fairly off my trolley my Irish Molly, when you are near
Springtime you know is ring time, come dear now don't be slow
Change you name, go out with game
Begorra wouldn't I do the same, my Irish Molly-O

Molly dear now did you hear I furnished up the flat
Three little cosy rooms with bath and a welcome on the mat
It's five pounds down and two a week, we'll soon be out of debt
It's all complete except we haven't brought the cradle yet

Oh Molly, my Irish Molly, me sweet-a-cushla dear
I'm fairly off my trolley my Irish Molly, when you are near
Springtime you know is ring time, come dear now don't be slow
Change you name, go out with game
Begorra wouldn't I do the same, my Irish Molly-O

Molly dear now did you hear what all the neighbours say
About the hundred sovereigns you have safely stowed away
They say that's why I love you, ah but Molly that's a shame
If you had only ninety nine I'd love you just the same

Oh Molly, my Irish Molly, me sweet-a-cushla dear
I'm fairly off my trolley my Irish Molly, when you are near
Springtime you know is ring time, come dear now don't be slow
Change you name, go out with game
Begorra wouldn't I do the same, my Irish Molly-O
