Lyrics
As we rowed out to Fennario As we rowed out to Fennario Our captain fell in love With a lady like a dove And he called her by name, pretty Peggy-O Will you marry me, pretty Peggy-O? Will you marry me, pretty Peggy-O? If you will marry me, I will set your cities free And free all the people in the area-O I would marry you, sweet William-O I would marry you, sweet William-O I would marry you but your guineas are too few And I fear my mama would be angry-O What would your mama think, pretty Peggy-O? What would your mama think, pretty Peggy-O? What will your mama think if she heard my guineas clink? Saw mе marching at the head of my soldiers-O If еver I return, pretty Peggy-O If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O If ever I return, all your cities I will burn And free all the people in the area-O Come steppin' down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O Come steppin' down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O Come steppin' down the stairs, combing back your yellow hair Bid a last farewell to your William-O Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O Sweet William he is dead and he died for a maid And he's buried in the Louisiana country-O As we rowed out to Fennario As we rowed out to Fennario Our captain fell in love With a lady like a dove And he called her by name, pretty Peggy-O
