Tell Me Ma

I'll tell me ma when I gone home
 The boys won't leave the girls alone
 They pull my hair, they stole my comb
 But that's all right 'til I go home
 She is handsome, she is pretty
 She's the belle of Belfast City
 She is courtin', a one, two, three
 Please won't you tell me who is she

 Now Albert Mooney says he loves her
 And all the boys are fighting for her
 They're knocking on the door and ringing on the bell
 Saying, "Oh my true love, are you well?"
 Out she comes as white as snow
 With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
 Old Johnny Murphy says she'll die
 If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
 I'll tell me ma when I gone home
 The boys won't leave the girls alone
 They pull my hair, they stole my comb
 But that's all right 'til I go home
 She is handsome, she is pretty
 She's the belle of Belfast City
 She is courtin', a one, two, three
 Please won't you tell me who is she

 Let the wind and the rain and the hail come high
 And the snow come shoveling from the sky
 She's as nice as apple pie
 And 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 comes home
 Let them all come as they will
 It's Patrick Murphy she loves still
 Tell me ma when I gone home
 The boys won't leave the girls alone
 They pull my hair, they stole my comb
 But that's all right 'til I go home
 She is handsome, she is pretty
 She's the belle of Belfast City
 She is courtin', a one, two, three
 Please won't you tell me who is she
 She is handsome, she is pretty
 She's the belle of Belfast City
 She is courtin', a one, two, three
 Please won't you tell me who is she
