peggy-o (live at fox theater, atlanta, may 19, 1977) - the grateful dead lyrics

Loading...

as we rowed out to fennario
as we rowed out to fennario
our captain fell in love
with a lady like a dove
and he called her by name, pretty peggy-o

will you marry me, pretty peggy-o?
will you marry me, pretty peggy-o?
if you will marry me, all my cities i will free
and free all the people in the area-o

i would marry you, sweet william-o
i would marry you, sweet william-o
i would marry you but your guineas are too few
and i fear my mama would be angry-o

what would your mama think, pretty peggy-o?
what would your mama think, pretty peggy-o?
what would your mama think if she heard my guineas clink?
saw me marching at the head of my soldiers-o

[instrumental break]

if ever i return, pretty peggy-o
if ever i return, pretty peggy-o
if ever i return, all your cities i will burn
destroy all the people in the area-o

come steppin’ down the stairs, pretty peggy-o
come steppin’ down the stairs, pretty peggy-o
come steppin’ down the stairs, combing back your yellow hair
bid a last farewell to your william-o

sweet william, he is dead, pretty peggy-o
sweet william, he is dead, pretty peggy-o
sweet william, he is dead, and he died for a maid
and he’s buried in the louisiana country-o

as we rowed out to fennario
as we rowed out to fennario
our captain fell in love
with a lady like a dove
and he called her by name, pretty peggy-o
