I've been around this whole country
|
But I never yet found Fenneario.
|
|
Well, as we marched down, as we marched down
|
Well, as we marched down to Fennerio'
|
Well, our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove
|
Her name that she had was Pretty Peggy-O
|
|
Well, what will your mother say, what will your mother say
|
What will your mother say, Pretty Peggy-O
|
What will your mother say to know you're going away
|
You're never, never, never coming back-io ?
|
|
Come a-running down your stairs
|
Come a-running down your stairs
|
Come a-running down your stairs, Pretty Peggy-O
|
Come a-running down your stairs
|
Combing back your yellow hair
|
You're the prettiest darned girl I ever seen-io.
|
|
The lieutenant he has gone
|
The lieutenant he has gone
|
The lieutenant he has gone, Pretty Peggy-O
|
The lieutenant he has gone, long gone
|
He's a-riding down in Texas with the rodeo.
|
|
Well, our captain he is dead, our captain he is dead
|
Our captain he is dead, Pretty Peggy-O
|
Well, our captain he is dead, died for a maid
|
He's buried somewhere in Louisiana-O.
