As we marched down to Fennario
As we marched down to Fennario
Our captain fell in love
With a lady like a dove
And they called her name, pretty Peggy-O
Come a runnin' down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O
Come a runnin' down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O
Come a runnin' down the stairs,
Combin' back your yellow hair
You're the prettiest little girl I've ever seen-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 far as any maiden in the area-o
What will your mother say, pretty Peggy-O?
What will your mother say, pretty Peggy-O?
What will your mother say
When she finds you've gone away
To places far and strange to Fennario?
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 area-o,
Destroying all the ladies in the area-o
