Well no one was fearing, or knew of his plan
The miner, Lee MacGowan, lived in highland
Where he stayed up each night for near a year
And he'd whisper it softly, so no one would hear

Molly Rose, I'm comin' for you
And I'll kill anybody that don't want me too
The blood'll spill an ocean and then we'll set sail
Molly Rose, my darlin', get ready for hell

Molly Rose was a lively, beauty of a whore
No man was so strong he couldn't come back for more
On a night that the moon had the coyotes a-howlin
In the whorehouse walked a darkness by the name of Lee MacGowan

He came there at night to take Molly's life
He had a bleeding heart, two forty-fours and his favorite knife

Molly Rose, I'm comin' for you
And I'll kill anybody that don't want me too
The blood'll spill an ocean and then we'll set sail
Molly Rose, my darlin', get ready for hell

He was struck by her beauty, as she walked down the stairs
Every man's eyes were on her, wishing that she was theirs
Her seductive smile soon turned to a frown
When she gazed upon a smiling man by the name of Lee MacGowan
She knew this face well, so dark and so cold
She nearly had to kill the man about a year ago
She shot him down with her Derringer, she took him right to death
But he fled away and returned today, to take her last breath

Molly Rose, I'm comin' for you
And I'll kill anybody that don't want me too
The blood'll spill an ocean and then we'll set sail
Molly Rose, my darlin', get ready for hell

She knew why he was there, she let out a cry
Every man in the whorehouse, they ran to her side
The gun started blasting, bodies fell to the ground
The only two left standing, were Molly rose and Lee MacGowan
And he smiled at her bloody, they'd shot him 6 times
But he ran for the staircase and he pulled out his knife
And he grabbed Molly Rose she was trembling with fear
And he held a knife right to her throat and he whispered in her ear

Molly Rose, I'm comin' for you
And I'll kill anybody that don't want me too
The blood'll spill an ocean and then we'll set sail
Molly Rose, my darlin', get ready for hell
