I encountered this beautiful survivor of Francie Nolan's Williamsburgh on Graham and Meserole. Searching the internet gave me information about the building. Other highlight's of this tour's portion include the old painted building ad for Roman Furniture on Meserole and the massive and beautiful Most Holy Trinity Church (parish established, 1841-church built, 1886) on Montrose. The music here is another song that James Dunn sung in the movie, Molly Malone
In Dublin's Fair City. Where the girls are so pretty. I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheel'd her wheel barrow. Through streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
Chorus
Alive, alive o!, alive, alive o! Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
She was a fishmonger But sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they each wheel'd their barrow Through streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
Chorus
She died of a fever And no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
But her ghost wheels her barrow. Through streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive o!
Chorus
