handsome molly - martin simpson lyrics

Loading...

well, i wish i was in london
or some other seaport town
i’d put my foot on a steamboat
i’d sail the ocean ’round

while sailing ’round the ocean
while sailing ’round the sea
i’d think of handsome molly
wherever she might be

don’t you remember, molly
you gave me your right hand?
you said whenever you’d marry
i would be the man

but you broke your promise
go with whom you please
my poor heart is aching
you are at your ease

i went to church last sunday
molly came ridin’ by
i could tell her mind was changin’
by the rovin’ of her eye

molly’s fair and handsom
fingers long and small
told me she’s good natured and that’s the best of all

hair as black as ravens
eyes as black as coal
cheeks just like the lillies out in the morning grown

i go down to the river
wait till everyone’s asleep
i think of handsome molly
an’ i begin to weep

so i wish i was in london
or some other seaport town
i’d put my foot on a steamboat
i’d sail the ocean ’round
