Biddy Mulligan lyrics

You may travel from Clare to County Kildare
From Dublin right down to Macroom.
But where would you see a fine widow like me
Biddy Mulligan, the pride of the Coombe

I'm a scrap of a widow that lives in a place,
In Dublin that`s known as the Coombe.
And me comfort and ease sure no king could excel
Though me palace consists of one room
Be Patrick Street corner for thirty-five years,
I`ve stood be me stall, that`s no lie
And while I stood there, there was no one would dare
To say black was the white of me eye

You may travel from Clare to County Kildare
From Dublin right down to Macroom.
But where would you see a fine widow like me
Biddy Mulligan, the pride of the Coombe

I sell apples and oranges, nuts and sweet peas,
Bulls eyes and sugar-stick sweet.
On a Saturday night I sell second-hand clothes,
From me stall on the floor of the street.
Now I have a son Mick and he plays on the fife
He belongs to the Longford street band
It will do your heart good just to see them march out
On a Sunday to Sandymount strand

You may travel from Clare to County Kildare
From Dublin right down to Macroom.
But where would you see a fine widow like me
Biddy Mulligan, the pride of the Coombe, me boys
Biddy Mulligan, the pride of the Coombe
