Tell Me Ma ft. Rose Drucker Lyrics

Tell me ma when I go home

The boys won't leave the girls alone

Pull my hair and stole my comb

But that's all right 'til I go home

She is handsome

She is pretty

She is the belle

Of Boston city

She's a-courting

One-two-three

Pray, won't you tell me

Who is she

Albert Mooney says he loves her

And all the boys are fighting for her

Knock on the door, ring on the bell

Said hello, my true love, are you well

Out she comes, as white as snow

Rings on her fingers, bells on her toes

Old Jenny Murray says she'll die

If she doesn't get the fella with the roving eye

Tell me ma when I go home

The boys won't leave the girls alone

Pull my hair and stole my comb

But that's all right 'til I go home

She is handsome

She is pretty

She is the belle

Of Boston city

She's a-courting

One-two-three

Pray, won't you tell me

Who is she

The wind and the rain and the hail blow high

And the snow comes tumbling through the sky

She's as sweet as apple pie

She'll get her own right by and by

When she gets a lad of her own

She won't tell mom when she gets home

Let them all come as they will

For it's Albert Mooney she loves still

Tell me ma when I go home

The boys won't leave the girls alone

Pull my hair and stole my comb

But that's all right 'til I go home

She is handsome

She is pretty

She is the belle

Of Boston city

She's a-courting

One-two-three

Pray, won't you tell me

Who is she
