but where would you see a fine widow like me,

Biddy Mulligan, the pride of the Coombe.

I'm a buxom fine widow that lives in a place,
A E
in Dublin that's known as the Coombe.

My shop and my stall are laid out on the street,
A E A
and my palace consists of one room.
A E
By Patrick's street corner for 35 years,
A E
I stood by my stall that's no lie.
A E
And while I stood there, there was no one would dare
A E A
to say black was the white of me eye.

bull's eyes and sugar stick sweet.

from my stall on the floor of the street.

Now I have a son Mick and he plays on the pipe,

It would do your heart good just to see them march out,
A E A
on a Sunday to Sandymount Strand.
