129. Molly Malone   The Dubliners

		E
	Crying, "	Cockles and mussels,

		H7	E
	a	live, alive,	oh!"

	E
In	Dublin's fair city,

	H7
where the	girls are so pretty,

	E
I	first set my eyes

	H7
on sweet	Molly Malone.

	E
As she	wheeled her wheel-barrow

	H7
through	streets broad and narrow,

	E
crying, "	Cockles and mussels,

	H7	E
a	live, alive,	oh!"

E A live, alive, oh,   H7 a live, alive, oh,   E crying, " Cockles and mussels,   H7 E a live, alive,  oh!"

	E
She	was a fishmonger

	H7
and	sure it's no wonder,

E

so were her father

	H7
and	mother before.

	E
They	each wheeled their barrow

	H7
through	streets broad and narrow,

	E
crying, "	Cockles and mussels,

	H7	E
a	live, alive,	oh!"

E A live, alive, oh,   H7 a live, alive, oh,   E crying, " Cockles and mussels,   H7 E a live, alive,  oh!"

	E
She	died of a fever

H7

no one could save her.

E

That was the end

	H7
of sweet	Molly Malone.

	E
Now her	ghost wheels her barrow

	H7
through	streets broad and narrow,

	E
crying, "	Cockles and mussels,

	H7	E
a	live, alive,	oh!"

E   A live, alive, oh,     H7   a live, alive, oh,     E   crying, " Cockles and mussels,     H7 E   a live, alive,  oh!"

Die Stadt Dublin hat der schönen Fischhändlerin dieses Denkmal gesetzt, das 1988 vom Bürgermeister der Stadt enthüllt wurde.
