• Lyrics:
  I've a neat little cottage and in it does dwell
  Molly and I and the Baby,
  And I'm sure that for comfort no king can excel,
  Molly and I and the Baby;
  My dear little Molly is just twenty-three,
  The baby's turned one, and between you and me,
  We're the nicest young fam'ly you ever did see,
  Molly and I and the Baby.
  
  chorus:
  Molly, Molly, always so jolly,
  Always laughing, chock full of glee,
  Living as happy, as happy as can be,
  Molly and I and the Baby.
  (repeat chorus)
  
  Now we care not for riches or palaces grand,
  Molly and I and the Baby,
  For I'm sure we'd not change with the best in the land,
  Molly and I and the Baby;
  When I get home at night with my babe on my knee,
  I sit in my arm chair, while Molly makes tea,
  Then we dine at a table that only seats three,
  Molly and I and the Baby.
  
  Every bright Sunday morning to church we will go,
  Molly and I and the Baby,
  As we walk down the street, all the people they know
  Molly and I and the Baby;
  Now Molly's a girl that you'd all like to meet,
  Her eyes are so charming, her smile is so sweet,
  If you chance to be our way just drop in and greet
  Molly and I and the Baby.
