Peggy O

As we marched down to Faneri-o    As we marched down to Faneri-o   Our captain fell in 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 are-o           What will your mother say pretty 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 are-o          Destroying all the ladies in the are-o
