Molly Malone Lyrics - She Who Dwells - Sinead Oconnor

In Dublin's fair city, where the girls are so pretty 

I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone 

As she wheeled her wheelbarrow 

Through streets broad and narrow 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O! 

A-live a-live O! A-live a-live O! 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O! 

She was a fishmonger and sure it was no wonder 

For so were her father and mother before 

And they both wheeled their barrows 

Through streets broad and narrow 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O! 

A-live a-live O! A-live a-live O! 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O! 

She died of a fever and no one could save her 

And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone 

Now her ghost wheels her barrow 

Through streets broad and narrow 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O! 

A-live a-live O! A-live a-live O! 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O! 

A-live a-live O! A-live a-live O! 

Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
