CHORUS:
Tell me Ma when I go home
The boy's won't leave the girls' alone
They pull my hair, they stole my comb
But that's all right till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
She's the belle of Belfast city
She is counting, one, two, three
Pray, would you tell me who is she?
REPEAT CHORUS
Albert Mooney says he loves her
All the boys are fighting for her
Knock at the door and they ring that bell
Oh, my true love, are you well?
Out she comes, as white as snow
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Old Jenny Murray says she will die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
REPEAT CHORUS
Hey-ho, hey-ho
Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high
And the snow come a-tumbling 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 man 'till she comes home
Let them all come as they will
For it's Albert Mooney she loves still
REPEAT CHORUS
Aah, she's a great woman
Hey-ho, hey-ho
REPEAT SECOND VERSE
REPEAT CHORUS
Tell me ma when I go home
The boy's won't leave the girls alone
They pull my hair, they syole my comb
But that's all right 'till I get home
She is handsome, she is pretty
She is the belle of Belfast city
She is counting one, two, three
Pray, would you tell me who is she?
REPEAT CHORUS
Would you tell me, would you tell ,me
would you tell me who is she?
(REPEAT 3 TIMES)
Hey-ho, yo, yo
