Old Woman from Wexford The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem

There was an old woman from Wexford
In Wexford town did dwell
She loved her husband dearly
But another man twice as well

With me right fol lid-der-al ar-yl
And me right fol low-rel lee

One day she went to the doctor
Some medicine for to find
Saying "Doctor give me something
That'll make me ould man blind"

"Oh, feed him eggs and marrow bones
And make him sup them all
And it won't be so very long after
That'll he won't see you at all"

So she fed him eggs and marrow bones
And made him sup them all
And it wasn't so very long after
That'll he couldn't see the wall

Say He "I think I'll drown meself
But that might be a sin"
"Says she "I'll go to e waters edge
And help to push you in"
