Cockels and mussels - The Dubliners
In Dublin's fair city, where girls are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheel-barrow, through streets broad and narrow
Crying cockels and mussels, alive, alive-o
Refrein:
Alive, alive-o, alive, alive-o
Crying cockels and mussels, alive, alive-o
She was a fishmonger, but sure, 't was no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they each wheeled their barrow, through streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels, alive, alive-o
Refrein.
She died of a fever, and no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
But her ghost wheeled her barrow through the streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels, alive, alive-o
Refrein.
