Lyrics:
Annie Rooney and her Joe,
With little Mary Green,
Down at Maggie Murphy's home,
Last year each night was seen,
In that street a girl did dwell,
For beauty the world could claim,
The queen of all is Peggy Cline,
That is the dear one's name.
chorus:
Little roguish bewitching young Peggy Cline,
On next St. Patrick's day, I'm to call her mine,
Of all beauties in town there are none so fine,
The boys are sighing and crying fo Peggy Cline. (repeat chorus)
She's a girl that's fond of sport,
She plays most every game,
In mashing her the boys can't win,
She treats them all the same,
Her simple ways you can't resist,
There's sunshine in her frown,
The idol of society,
The talk of all the town.
