In Dublin's fair city
Where girls are so pretty
'Twas there I first met
With sweet Molly Malone
She drove a wheelbarrow
Through the streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive-o"
Chorus:
"Alive, alive-o, alive, alive-o"
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive-o"
She was a fishmonger
But sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her mother and father before
They drove their wheelbarrows
Through the streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive-o"
Chorus
She died of a fever
And nothing could save her
And that was the end of
Sweet Molly Malone
But her ghost wheels a barrow
through the streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive-o"
Repeat Chorus twice
