Lyrics

1. In the neighborhood where plain folks dwell
   There lives a little maiden
   With love for her, I must confess
   My heart is over-laden
   The neighbors all look up to her
   They feel so proud of Sally
   She’s called by those who know her best
   The angel of the alley

Refrain
Just a plain little Irish girl
With two big eyes of blue
Just a plain little Irish girl
I don’t mind telling you
I’m head and heels in love with her
My brain is in a whirl
Over one little, sweet little, dear little
Plain little Irish girl

2. In the neighborhood where Sally lives
   I know she loves another
   She keeps her like a queen should be
   And that’s her dear old mother
   Each Sunday dressed all in my best
   I stroll down in the alley
   To see the only girl I love
   My own, my pretty Sally
