about

from the folklore collections of Lady Gregory

lyrics

poor honest Biddy
a fresh clean looking woman
a medium-sized woman
in a frilly white bonnet

my mother was a next-door neighbor of Biddy
I always heard her say
that she was a good-living woman in her private life
and that she used to have her rosary beads in her hands
whenever she looked into the bottle

neighbors frowned on the idea that a young girl
should be heard humming and singing
in the year after her mother’s death
sure, she might be righter than what we are
