John Spillane – Molly Bawn Lyrics
Artist: John Spillane
Song: Molly Bawn
Tell my friends that I am well and playing music in Clonmel
Tell my friends that I am well and playing music in Clonmel
I am in the honey meadow all among the honey grass
In the shadow of the mountain with my dark-eyed lass
In the shadow of the mountain with my dark-eyed lass
We are drinking apple cider from a golden glass
Tell my friends that I am well and playing music in Clonmel
Well the first time that I saw her she came shining like the dawn
Like a meadow in the morning and her namе was Molly Bawn
Molly Bawn, Molly Bawn
Molly Bawn O’Leary from the County Tipperary
You mischiеvous dark fairy you have me surely robbed
Playing on the footpath with your lipstick on your gob
Molly Bawn, Molly Bawn
We were roaming in the gloaming we were busking in the dusk
She played the Stack of Barley I played the Moneymusk
There was music in the mountain, there was music on the street
There was music in the money in the money tumbling round our feet
Molly Bawn, Molly Bawn
Molly Bawn O’Leary from the County Tipperary
You mischievous dark fairy you have me surely robbed
Playing on the footpath with your lipstick on your gob
Molly Bawn, Molly Bawn
We went traipsing down an avenue of overhanging ash
She said she’d mind the money, she told me mind the hash
The judge he said “What time have you?” I said “It’s five to ten”
He said “That’s just the time you’ll do” and he put me in the pen
Molly Bawn, Molly Bawn
Molly Bawn O’Leary from the County Tipperary
You mischievous dark fairy you have me surely robbed
Playing on the footpath with your lipstick on your gob
Molly Bawn, Molly Bawn
Tell my friends that I am well and playing music in Clonmel
Do not say I’ve gone to hell or languish in this prison cell
