about

My dear wife and I have often discussed how nearly all of her musical namesakes are conniving, mean, two-timing hussies. Seemed like a good week to defend my gal.

lyrics

For centuries and maybe more
My girl has played the shrew
In song and tale, she's e'er the one
you wish you never knew
For it's Molly-this and Molly-that and
Molly-makes-the-rounds
It's time and time, I tell ye true
This guff to go to ground

There's talk of two-time nightmares
A-ringin' in me ears
My Molly isn't one of those
I've known her all these years
So if you've got a word to speak
In vain upon her name
I'll kick your ass so hard Belfast
Will cast ye out in shame

So gather ye yr rosebuds lads
And gather while ye may
Cause time's a bitch and
Sure as shite she'll steal yr heart away
So make good haste and never waste
The chances you have got
My Molly is as fine a gal as
Ever could be bought

Fer shite, fer shite, we'll ride tonight
And give ol'Scratch his due
We'll have it at the local
And we'll heave it in the loo
Tight, tight, the money's tight
So buy another round
I'll hit you back before they pack
Me carcass in the ground

For Molly is the devil
And she sure do like to ball
I'm drunk in Molly's chambers and
They say she'll bleed us all
Speak ye ill of Sharon
Cast your doubts on Maude
But one more word of Molly
And it's out, the cattle prod, hey!

So gather ye yr rosebuds lads
And gather while ye may
Cause time's a bitch and
Sure as shite she'll steal yr heart away
So make good haste and never waste
The chances you have got
My Molly is as fine a gal as
Ever could be bought

Fer shite, fer shite, we'll ride tonight
And give ol'Scratch his due
We'll have it at the local
And we'll heave it in the loo
Tight, tight, the money's tight
So buy another round
I'll hit you back before they pack
Me carcass in the ground
