Tell Me Ma
Chorus
G C G
Tell me Ma when I go home
D7 G
the boys won't leave the girls alone
C G
They pulled my hair they stole my comb
D7 G
but that's OK til I go home
C
She is handsome she is pretty
G D7
She is the belle of Belfast city
G C
She's a courting one two three.
G D G
Please won't you tell me who is she
Albert Mooney Says he loves her
All the boys are fighting for her
The rap at the door and ring the bell
saying Oh my true love are you well
Out she comes as white as snow
rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Jenny Murray says she'll die
if she doesn't get the fella with the roving eye.
Chorus
Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high
and the snow come 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 Ma til she goes home
But let them all come as they will
it's Albert Mooney that she loves still.
