Couplet n°1
I tell me ma when I go home
The boys won't leave the girls a- lone
They pull my hair they stole my comb
And that all right till I go home
She is hand- some she is pret- ty
She's the belle of Bel- fast ci- ty
She is cour- ting one two three
Please won't you tell me who is she?
Couplet n°2
Al- bert Moo- ney says he loves her
All the boys are figh- ting for her
They rap at the door they ring the bell
Sa- ying my true love are you well?
Out _ she comes as white as snow,
Rings on her fingers bells on her toes
Old Jenny Mur- phy says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
Couplet n°3
Let the wind and the rain blow high
And the snow come shovelling from the sky
She is as nice as ap- ple pie
She'll get her own lad by and by
When she gets a lad of her own
She won't tell ma when she gets home
Let them all come as they will
But it's Al- bert Moo- ney she loves still
