Peggy Gordon |
| 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 |
| I am so in love that I can’t deny it |
| My heart lies smothered in my breast |
| It’s not for you to let the whole world know it |
| A troubled mind can find no rest |
| I leaned myself on a cask of brandy |
| It was my fancy, so to do |
| For when I’m drinking, I’m seldom thinking |
| Wishing Peggy Gordon was there |
| I wish I was away in Ingo |
| Far away across the briny sea |
| Sailing over deepest waters |
| Where love nor care never trouble me |
| I wished I was in a lonesome valley |
| Where womankind cannot be found |
| And the pretty little birds do change their voices |
| And every moment a different sound |
