Pretty Polly

Polly, pretty Polly, come go along with me

Polly, pretty Polly, come go along with me

Before we get married some pleasure to seeShe got up behind him and away they did ride

She got up behind him and away they did ride

Over the hills and the valleys so wideThey rode a little further and what did they spy

They rode a little further and what did they spy

But a new-dug grave with a spade lying byOh Willy, oh Willy, I'm scared of your ways

Oh Willy, oh Willy, I'm scared of your ways

Scared you might lead my poor body astrayPolly, pretty Polly, you've guessed just about right

Polly, pretty Polly, you've guessed just about right

I've dug on your grave the best part of last nightAnd he stabbed her in the heart and the heart-blood did flow

And he stabbed her in the heart and the heart-blood did flow

Into her grave pretty Polly did goHe threw a little dirt over her and started for home

He threw a little dirt over her and started for home

Leaving nothing behind but the wild birds to moanAnd it's debt to the devil, and Willy must pay

And it's debt to the devil, and Willy must pay

For killing pretty Polly and running away.
