No coin in my coffer No food in my bowl A husband dead and gone Up to God – Rest his soul
Now will I turn to thieving And risk the gallows tree Or hitch up for a sovereign Oh what's become of me?
In the dark lanes of London Black Mary is my name And I'm all yours for a sovereign This body's yours to take
Oh how I long for home Across the ocean wide But the Devil has my soul And I'm doomed to walk the night
Oh if my love could see me In poverty and sin Would he recognise me? His girl from Limerick?
Oh where is Mary Kelly? Sold for a sovereign Oh who will recognise me? The girl from Limerick?Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
