|
I wish I was in |
|
LondonOr some other seaport town |
|
I'll set myself on a steamship |
|
And I'll sail the ocean round |
|
While sailing around the ocean |
|
While sailing around the sea |
|
I dream of |
|
Handsome Molly |
|
Wherever she might be |
|
Her hair's as black as raven |
|
Her eyes as black as coal |
|
Her teeth are like lilies |
|
That in the morning glow |
|
Oh, don't you remember, |
|
MollyYou gave me your right hand |
|
You said that if you married |
|
Well I would be your man |
|
And now you've gone and left me |
|
Go on with who you please |
|
My poor heart is aching here |
|
Lying at your ease |
|
And I go down to the river |
|
When everyone's asleep |
|
I dream of handsome |
|
MollyAnd sit right down and weep |
|
I wish I was in |
|
LondonOr some other seaport town |
|
I'll set myself on a steamship |
|
And I'll sail the ocean round |
|
While sailing around the ocean |
|
While sailing around the sea |
|
I'd dream of |
|
Handsome Molly |
|
Wherever she might be |
