Belle Of Belfast

BELLE OF BELFAST

I'll tell me ma when I get home
The boys won't leave the girls alone
They pull my hair and they stole my comb,
Well that's alright 'til I get home
She is handsome. She is pretty.
She is the belle of Belfast city
She is courtin' 1,2,3.
Oh 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 they ring at 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 Jenny Murray says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fella with the roving eye

Let the wind and the rain and the hale blow high
And the snow come tumblin' from the sky
She's as nice 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
