Molly dear now did you hear,
the news that's goin' round?
Down in a corner of my heart,
a love is what you've found
And every time I look 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 acushla 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, and I`ll be game,
begorrah and I’ll do the same
My Irish Molly Oh!
Molly dear now did you hear
I furnished up the flat.
Three little cosy rooms with bath
and a '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.
Molly dear now did you hear
what all the neighbours 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
