[Intro]
Em
When first I came to Ireland, some pleasure for to find
It’s there I spied a damsel fair, most pleasing to my mind
Her rosy cheeks and her rolling eyes, like arrows pierced my breast
They call her lovely Molly-o, the Lily of the West
Her golden hair in ringlets hung, and her dress was spangled o’er
She’d a ring on every finger, brought from the foreign shore
T’would entice both kings and princes, so costly was she dressed
She far excelled Diana bright, the Lily of the West
I then did court this one awhile, in hopes her love to gain
But soon she turned her back on me, which caused me all my pain
She robbed me of my liberty, she robbed me of my rest
I was forsook by Molly-o, the Lily of the West
One day as I was walking down, on by a shady grove
I spied a lord of high degree, conversing with my love
She sang a song delightful, while I was so oppressed
Sayin’ I’ll bid adieu to Molly-o, the Lily of the West
I walked up to my rival, with a dagger in my hand
I dragged him from my own false love, and I boldly bid him stand
In mad with desperation, I swore I’d pierce his breast
I was then forsook by Molly-o, the Lily of the West
I then did stand my trial, and boldly I did plead
But a flaw was in my indictment found, which quickly had me free
That beauty bright I did adore, the judge did her address
Saying go, you faithless Molly-o, the Lily of the West
Now that I gained my liberty, a’rolling I will go
I will travel through old Ireland, and I’ll ramble Scotland o’er
And though she swore my life away, she still disturbs my rest
I still must idle Molly-o, the Lily of the West
