As we marched down to faneri-o As we marched down to faneri-o Our captain fell n love with a lady like a dove And they called her name, pretty peggy-o Come a runnin' down the stairs, pretty peggy-o Come a runnin' down the stairs, pretty peggy-o Come a runnin' down the stairs, combin' back Your yellow hair You're the prettiest little girl I've ever seen-o
In a carriage you will ride, pretty peggy-o In a carriage you will ride, pretty peggy-o In a carriage you will ride, with your true love by Your side As far as any maiden in the ar-e-o What will your mother say, pretry peggy-o? What will your mother say, pretty peggy-o? What will your mother say, when she finds you've Gone away To places far and strange to faneri-o?
If ever I return, pretty peggy-o If ever I return, pretty peggy-o If ever I return, all your cities I will burn Destroying all the ladies in the ar-e-o Destroying all the ladies in the ar-e-o
