The Dubliners - I'll Tell Me Ma Lyrics
I'll tell me maWhen I go homeThe boys won't leaveThe girls aloneThey pulled my hairThey stole my combBut that's alrightTil I go homeShe is handsome she is prettyShe is the belle of dublin cityShe is courting one, two, threePray would you tell me who is sheAlbert mooney says he loves herAll the boys are fighting for herThey knock at the doorAnd they ring at the bell saying"oh, my true love are you well"Out she comes as white as snowWith rings on her fingersAnd bells on her toesOl' jenny murray says she'll dieIf she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eyeI'll tell me maWhen I go homeThe boys won't leaveThe girls aloneThey pulled my hairThey stole my combBut that's alrightTil I go homeShe is handsome she is prettyShe is the belle of dublin cityShe is courting one, two, threePray would you tell me who is sheLet the wind and the rain and the breeze blow highAnd the snow come falling from the skyShe's as sweet as apple pieShe'l get her own lad by and byWhen she gets a lot of her ownShe won't tell her ma when she gets homeLet them all say as they willFor albert mooney she loves stillI'll tell me maWhen I get homeThe boys won't leaveThe girls aloneThey pulled my hairThey broke my combBut that's alrightTil I get homeShe is handsome she is prettyShe is the belle of dublin cityShe is courting one, two, threePray would you tell me who is sheAlbert mooney says he loves herAll the boys are fighting for herThey knock at the doorAnd they ring at the bell saying"oh, my true love are you well"Out she comes as white as snowWith rings on her fingersAnd bells on her toesOl' jenny murray says she'll dieIf she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eyeI'll tell me maWhen I go homeThe boys won't leaveThe girls aloneThey pulled my hairThey stole my combBut that's alrightTil I go homeShe is handsome she is prettyShe is the belle of dublin cityShe is courting one, two, threePray would you tell me who is she
