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
