Molly Malone Cockles and Mussels by Possibly Irish Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In Dublin's fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I once set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her barrow
Through streets wide and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
[Chorus]
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh
[Verse 2]
She was a fishmonger
Sure 'twas no wonder
Just as her father and mother before
And they wheeled their barrows
Through streets wide and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
[Chorus]
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh
[Spoken]
Two, three, four!
[Spoken]
Now for the sad part
[Verse 3]
She died of a fever
And sure no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
But now her ghost wheels her barrow
Through streets wide and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
[Chorus]
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh, o-o-o-oh
In Dublin's fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I once set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her barrow
Through streets wide and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
[Chorus]
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh
[Verse 2]
She was a fishmonger
Sure 'twas no wonder
Just as her father and mother before
And they wheeled their barrows
Through streets wide and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
[Chorus]
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh
[Spoken]
Two, three, four!
[Spoken]
Now for the sad part
[Verse 3]
She died of a fever
And sure no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
But now her ghost wheels her barrow
Through streets wide and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
[Chorus]
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
O-oh, o-o-o-oh
