Joanie was an unmarried girl       just turned twenty-seven

When they sent her to the sisters because of the way men looked at her
E                                   G#m
Branded as a jezebel she knew she was not bound for heaven

She had been cast in shame into the Magdalene laundries

Most girls went there pregnant      some by their own fathers
B                                         G#m
   Bridget got her belly from the Parish Priest
                   E                                           G#m
They're trying to get things as white as snow, all of those woe-begotten daughters

In the steaming stains of the Magdalene laundries
 
 
[Bridge]
E                            G#m
Prostitutes and destitutes      and temptresses like Joanie

Why do the call this place      Our Lady Of Charity?

Of Charity?

These bloodless brides of Jesus if they could just once glimpse their groom
        B                                        G#m
They'd drop the stones concealed behind their rosaries
E                                                   G#m
They wilt the grass they walk upon they leech the light out of a room
                E                           F#                         B

B                                     G#m
Peg O'Connell died today. She was a cheeky girl, they stuffed her in a hole
B                                         G#m
Surely to God you'd think at least some bells should ring
E                                                     G#m
Joanie thinks she'll die there too and that they'll tramp her in the dirt
      E                                               G#m
Like some lame bulb that never will bloom when the springtime comes
          E
When the springtime comes
          G#m
When the springtime comes
          E
When the springtime comes
G#m     E     G#m     E     F#m
