I thought the lyrics to this would be in the database, but couldn't find them. A classic. We all recognize the tune, here are the words.

THE IRISH WASHERWOMAN, lyrics by Charles Hansen.

Oh, an Irisher wash-woman hasn't an equal,
She rubs better, scrubs better, than other people,
She jigs a bit, sings a bit all the day long,
And her heart's like a shamrock, it sings a gay song.

Oh, the neighbors all listen to missus McCleary,
And vow that a wash-woman's life is not dreary,
She jiggles and wiggles an eyeful of Ireland,
The pride of the Irish, the wash-woman queen.
