I'll tell me ma when I get home The boys won't leave the girls alone Pulled me hair, stole me comb But that's all right till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty She is the belle of Dublin city She is a-courtin' a-one, two, three Pray can you tell me, who is she?
Albert Mooney says he loves her All the boys are fighting for her Knock on the door, they ring on the bell And oh, me true love, are you well! Out she comes, white as snow Rings on her fingers, bells on her toes Old Johnny Morrisey says she'll die If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye.
Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high And the snow come travelling through the sky She's as sweet as apple pie She'll get her own lad by and by When she gets a lad of her own She won't tell her ma when she gets home Let them all come as they will It's Albert Mooney she loves still.
