Appalachian folk song Joan Baez Key: F 6 7 7 -6 6 6 -6 7 6 As we marched down to Fen-na-ri-o, 7 8 9 9 9 -8 8 9 9 As we marched down to Fen-na-ri-o, 9 -10 -10 9 9 8 Our cap-tain fell in love 7 7 9 9 8 7 -6 with a la-dy like a dove. 7 7 7 7 -6 6 6 -6 7 6 They call her by name pret-ty Peg-gy-o. What will your mother think pretty Peggy-o? What will your mother think pretty Peggy-o? What will your mother think when she hears the guineas clink, The soldiers all marchin\' before you-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 fair as any maiden in the are-o. Come skippin\' down the stair, pretty Peggy-o. Come skippin\' down the stair, pretty Peggy-o. Come skippin\' down the stair combin\' back your yellow hair, And bid farewell to sweet William-o. Sweet William is dead, pretty Peggy-o. Sweet William is dead, pretty Peggy-o. Sweet William is dead, and he died for a maid, The fairest maid in the are-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. |
