Lyrics

[00:11.46] There used to be a gambler who courted all around
[00:15.22] There used to be a gambler who courted all around
[00:19.01] He courted pretty Polly, such beauty never been found
[00:24.73] Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, come go along with me
[00:28.52] Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, come go along with me
[00:32.31] Before we get married, some pleasures to see
[00:49.35] She jumped up behind him and 'way they did go
[00:53.00] She jumped up behind him and 'way they did go
[00:56.90] Down into the valley that was far below
[01:02.62] They went a little further and what did they spot
[01:06.23] They went a little further and what did they spot
[01:09.96] But a newly dug grave with a spade lying by
[01:26.78] Oh, Willy, hey, Willy, I'm afraid of your ways
[01:30.44] Oh, Willy, hey, Willy, I'm afraid of your ways
[01:34.22] I'm afraid you will lead my poor body astray
[01:39.90] Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you've guessed it just right
[01:43.64] Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you've guessed it just right
[01:47.34] I dug all your grave the better part of last night
[02:04.39] Then he stabbed her in the heart till her heart's blood did flow
[02:08.13] He stabbed her in her heart till her heart's blood did flow
[02:11.81] Down into the grave pretty Polly did go
[02:17.61] Now a debt to the devil, that Willy must pay
[02:21.29] A debt to the devil, that Willy must pay
[02:25.08] For killing pretty Polly and running away
