| Lyrics: | I've been around this whole country
But I never yet found Fenneario.
Well, as we
marched down, as we marched down
Well, as we marched down to Fennerio'
Well, our captain
fell in love with a lady like a dove
Her name that she had was Pretty Peggy-O
Well,
what will your mother say, what will your mother say
What will your mother say, Pretty
Peggy-O
What will your mother say to know you're going away
You're never, never, never
coming back-io ?
Come a-running down your stairs
Come a-running down your
stairs
Come a-running down your stairs, Pretty Peggy-O
Come a-running down your stairs
Combing back your yellow hair
You're the prettiest darned girl I ever seen-io.
The
lieutenant he has gone
The lieutenant he has gone
The lieutenant he has gone, Pretty
Peggy-O
The lieutenant he has gone, long gone
He's a-riding down in Texas with the
rodeo.
Well, our captain he is dead, our captain he is dead
Our captain he is dead,
Pretty Peggy-O
Well, our captain he is dead, died for a maid
He's buried somewhere in
Louisiana-O. |
