Maura O'Connell My Irish Molly-o Lyrics

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 gaze 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 achusla 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 your name, go out with game,
Begorrah wouldn't I do the same
My Irish Molly O

Molly dear now did you hear
I furnished up the flat
Three little cozy rooms with bath and '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 they haven't brought the
cradle yet

Oh, Molly, my Irish Molly, my sweet achusla 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 your name, go out with game,
Begorrah wouldn't I do the same my Irish Molly O

Molly dear and did you hear what all the neighbors 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, my sweet achusla 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 your name, go out with game,
Begorrah wouldn't I do the same
My Irish Molly O
