Mary O’Malley.

Mary O’Malley,
And little Sally,
Went down to the dale,
At the bottom of the vale,
And sang to the tune,
Of the raspberry-bloom;

“Oh, love is in spring,
Oh, love is in May,
Oh love is a song,
That I sing on this day…”

Johnny O’Malley,
And little Sally,
Went up to the hill,
With raspberry-Bill,
And sang the sweet song,
Of love on the run;

“Oh, love is in spring,
Oh, love is in May,
Oh love is a song,
That I sing on this day…”

JP Brown – 06/03/2008.
