Joanie was an unmarried girl       just turned twenty-seven

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

   Bridget got her belly from the Parish Priest
                   A#                                           Dm
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]
A#                            Dm
Prostitutes and destitutes      and temptresses like Joanie

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

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