Christy Moore - The Mad Lady & Me Lyrics
Among the walls and ruins
Of the horrid civic stone
I walked without a lover
For my older bones
It was a dreamlike day
It was there we met the trinity
And there I heard them singing
And she said bye bye Mama
Goodbye brother John
Farethee well ye Shandon bells
Ring on, ring on
She leaned and leaned much closer
Her mother cried "don't go my love"
We all must bye and bye
A drunken tongue said "leave her off"
She'll drive us all crazy
She turned around and saw my face
And both of us was she
And she said bye bye Mama
Goodbye brother John
Farethee well ye Shandon bells
Ring on, ring on
Up and to the limestone wall
And down the level steps
She threw herself into the stream
Witha spash and no regrets
Side stroke swimming midstream
Throwing kisses to the crowd
And everything was silent
And the sky had not one cloud
And she said bye bye Mama
Goodbye brother John
Farethee well ye Shandon bells
Ring on, ring on
We were swimming out in the sunset
We were swimming out to sea
Swimming down by the Opera House
The Mad Lady and me

Christy Moore The Mad Lady & Me Comments
Perfection :D
How apt sinead. And I know what went on my fair lady
I love Christy & Sinéad there voices allways sound good together💚🌈🙏
Love this song!
Gorgeous. Sad to see Sinead collapsing so totally and utterly these days. Hope there's a happy ending for her, somehow.
Jimmy's version is by far the best in my opinion....
excellent
I had this song played at my wedding - performed by a local amateur folk group called Junction. I still think their version is the best, but Christy and Sinead come a close second! Thanks for posting.
