The Woman From Wexford

The Woman From Wexford

(album: In Concert - 1965)

Well, there was an old woman from Wexford
And in Wexford she did dwell
She loved her old man dearly
But another one twice as well

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Ah, one day she went to a doctor
Some medicine for to find
She said, will ye give me something
That'll make me old man blind?

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

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

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Well, the doctor wrote a letter
And he signed it with his hand
He sent it to the old man
Just to let him understand

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Well, she fed him the eggs and marrow bones
And she made him sup them all
And it wasn't so very long after that
He couldn't see the wall

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Said the old man, I think I drown meself
But that might be a sin
Says she, I'll come along with you
And I'll help to shove you in

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Well, the old woman she stood back a bit
For to rush an' push him in
But the old man gently stood aside
And she went tumbling in

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Oh, how loudly she did yell
And how loudly she did bawl
Arra, hold yer whist, old woman
[Incomprehensible] he, I can't see you at all

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta

Ah, sure eggs and eggs and marrow bones
May make yer old man blind
But if you want to drown him
You must creep up close behind

When me tiggery, tiggery, toram
And me toram, toram, ta
Hey, tiggery, tiggery, toram
And the blind man he could see
