She is a courtin' one two three, Please can you tell me who is she?
Albert Mooney
says he loves her, all the boys are fightin' for her,
Knock at the door, ring at the bell, sayin' "Oh, me true love, are
you well?"
Out she comes, as white as snow, rings on her fingers, bells on her
toes
Ould Johny Morrissey says she'll die,
If she doesn't get the fella with the roving eye.
Let the wind and
the rain and the hail blow high,
And the snow comes a travelin' from the sky,
She's as nice as an 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.
So let them all come as they will, It's Albert Mooney she loves still.
