Oh, poor old Dicey Riley, she is taken to the sup Oh, poor old Dicey Riley, she will never give it up
Well, it's off each morning to the pop And then she's in for another little drop
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley, was she?
Poor old Dicey Riley, she is taken to the sup Poor old Dicey Riley, she will never give it up
It's off each morning to the pop And then she's in for another little drop
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley
Oh, she walks along Fitzgibbon Street With an independent air
And then it's down me summer hill And as the people stare
She says it's nearly half past one And it's time I had another little one
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley, was she?
Poor old Dicey Riley, she is taken to the sup Poor old Dicey Riley, she will never give it up
It's off each morning to the pop And then she's in for another little drop
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley
Oh, long years ago when men were men And fancied may have long
Oh, lovely Becky Cooper Or Maggie's Mary Wong
One woman put them all to shame Just one was worthy of the name
And the name of that dame was Dicey Riley, was she?
Poor old Dicey Riley, she is taken to the sup Poor old Dicey Riley, she will never give it up
It's off each morning to the pop And then she's in for another little drop
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley
Oh, but time went catching up with her Like many pretty whores
And it's after you along the street Before you're out the doors
Their looks all fade and the balance weighed Have it out of all that great brigade
Still the heart of the row was Dicey Riley, was she?
Poor old Dicey Riley, she is taken to the sup Poor old Dicey Riley, she will never give it up
It's off each morning to the pop And then she's in for another little drop
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley, was she?
Poor old Dicey Riley, she is taken to the sup Poor old Dicey Riley, she will never give it up
It's off each morning to the pop And then she's in for another little drop
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley
At the heart of the row was Dicey Riley
