-- | LYRICS | --
I was twenty four years old when I met the woman I would call my own
Twenty two grand kids now growing old, in the house that your brother brought ya
On the summer day when I proposed, I made that wedding ring from dentist gold
And I asked her father but her daddy said no
You can’t marry my daughter
She and I went on the run
Don’t care about religion
I’m gonna marry the woman I love
Down by the Wexford border
She was Nancy Mulligan, and I was William Sheeran
She took my name and then we were one
Down by the Wexford border
Well I met at her Guys in the second world war
She was working on a soldier’s ward
Never had I seen such beauty before
The moment that I saw her
Nancy was my yellow rose
And we got married wearing borrowed clothes
We got eight children now growing old
Five sons and three daughters
She and I went on the run
Don’t care about religion
I’m gonna marry the woman I love
Down by the Wexford border
She was Nancy Mulligan, and I was William Sheeran
She took my name and then we were one
Down by the Wexford border
From her snow white streak in her jet black hair
Over sixty years I’ve been loving her
Now we’re sat by the fire, in our old armchairs
You know Nancy I adore ya
From a farm boy born near Belfast town
I never worried about the king and crown
Cause I found my heart upon the southern ground
There’s no difference, I assure ya
She and I went on the run
Don’t care about religion
I’m gonna marry the woman I love
Down by the Wexford border
She was Nancy Mulligan, and I was William Sheeran
She took my name and then we were one
Down by the Wexford border

There is actually a video of an Irish News company showing it to the titular Nancy for the first time. Her reaction was "It was fine. As long as I’m not the one playing it.” Just casual amusement, no thought that her story was now an international hit song. Adorably humble really.

[@Tasnim1970]

"Nancy Mulligan" is one of the most personal songs on the album, telling the story of how his grandparents, William Sheeran, a Protestant from Belfast, Northern Ireland and Nancy Mulligan (real name Anne Mulligan), a Catholic from Republic of Ireland, met, fell in love during the Second World War and got married at the Wexford border. Ed Sheeran said: "They got engaged and no one turned up at their wedding. He stole all the gold teeth in his dental surgery and melted them down into a wedding ring, and they wore borrowed clothes to get married, and just basically have this kind of Romeo and Juliet romance, which is like the most romantic thing. So I thought I'd write a song about it and make it a jig." In an interview with the Irish Times, talking about the song's Irish roots, Ed Sheeran said "I don't think enough people use Irish folk in pop music... Hopefully if these songs are successful, more people will do a bit more like it."

maybe because they are his grandparents. why not write about their love without it we wouldn't have him.

[@TheDuvee6]

The love between his grandmother and grandfather might be completely different to the love Ed feels with his many girlfriends. He doesn't understand the circumstances his grandparents were in, or their special connection they had with one another. Love songs are about YOUR past experiences. You can't write about other people's love, no matter how well documented it might be

Supermarket Flowers is about his maternal grandmother, written from the perspective of his mother. And there is a video of Nancy reacting to the song Nancy Mulligan after Divide was released, which of course includes the song Supermarket Flowers, so Supermarket Flowers can't be about Nancy.

The part where it says "she and I went on the run, no care about religion": for those who didn't know this: Protestants and Catholics never normally married in Ireland. The Mulligans were Protestants and the Sheerans were Catholics. But religious factions shouldn't get in the way of love. And this was at the time that Ed Sheeran's grandparents first met; probably around 1939 or 1940.

[@BananaExtremeAwe]

I thought it was the other way round considering he's Grandad was from Northern Ireland.
