i'll_tell_me_ma
werewolf i'll tell me ma when i go home
the boys won't leave the girls alone.
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb,
well that's alright till i go home.

She is handsome, she is pretty
she is the bell of Belfast City
She is courtin, one...two....three
Please won't you tell me who is she?

Albert Mooney says he loves her,
all the boys are fighting for her.
They knock at the door and ring the bell
sayin, "oh my true love are you well?"
Out she comes as prim as snow
rings on her fingers and bells on her toes.
Her old nanny, jen, says, "I will die if you don't get the fella with the rovin' eye."

Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high
and the snow come tumbling from the sky,
she's still as warm 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 comes home.
Let them all come as they will
for it's albert mooney she loves still.
