O Peggy Gordon, You are my darling
Come sit you down upon my knee
And tell to me the very reason
Why I am slighted so by thee
verse 1
I am in love I can't deny it
My heart lies smothered in my breast
But it's not for you to let the world know it
A troubled mind can find no rest
verse 2
I lay my head on a cask of brandy
It was my fancy, I do declare
For when I'm drinking, I'm always thinking
And wishing Peggy Gordon were here
verse 3
I wish I was in some lonesome valley
Where womankind can ner' be found
And all the little birds they change their voices
And every moment a different sound
