    Lyrics
    GIRLS
    I'll tell my ma when I go home
    The boys won't leave the girls alone
    They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
    But that's all right till I go home.
    CHORUS- Boys
    She is handsome, she is pretty
    She is the bell of Belfast city
    She is counting one, two, three
    Please won't you tell me who is she.
    SOLO
    Albert Mooney says he loves her
    All the boys are fighting for her
    They knock at the door and they ring at the bell
    Sayin' "Oh my true love, are you well?"
    Out she comes as white as snow
    Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
    Old John Murray says, "She'll die
    If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye."
    CHORUS
    SOLO
    Let the wind and rain and the hail blow high
    And the snow come tumblin' from the sky
    She's as nice as apple pie
    She'll get her own lad by and by.
    When she gets a lad of her own
    She won't tell her ma when she goes home
    Let them all come as they will
    For it's Albert Mooney she loves still.
    GIRLS
    I'll tell my ma when I go home
    The boys won't leave the girls alone
    They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
    But that's all right till I go home.
    BOYS
    She is handsome, she is pretty
    She is the bell of Belfast city
    She is counting one, two, three
    Please won't you tell me who is
