Tell me my when I go home,
the boys won't leave the girls alone.
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb.
Well, that's all right till I go home.
She is handsome, she is pretty.
She's the belle of Belfast City.
She's a courtin' one, two, three.
Pray, won't you tell me who is she?
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.
Oh,
Johnny Murray says she will die if she
doesn't get the fella with the roving eye.
Tell me my when I go home,
the boys won't leave the girls alone.
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb.
Well, that's all right till I go home.
She is handsome, she is pretty.
She's the belle of Belfast City.
She's a courtin' one, two, three.
Pray, won't you tell me who is she?
Belfast City.
Let
the wind and the rain and the hail blow high
and the snow come a-tumblin' from the sky.
She's as nice as apple pie.
She'll get her own lot of buyin' by.
When she gets a lot of her own,
she won't tell her ma till she comes home.
Let them all come as they will,
for it's Albert Mooney she loves so.
Tell me my when I go home,
the boys won't leave the girls alone.
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb.
Well, that's all right till I go home.
She is handsome, she is pretty.
She's the belle of Belfast City.
She's a courtin' one, two, three.
Pray, won't you tell me who is she?
Belfast City.
It's the only place to be.
Belfast City.
It's a place for you and me.
Belfast City.
It's the only place to be.
Belfast City.
It's a place for you and me.
Tell me my when I go home,
