Testo di Pretty Polly

I courted pretty Polly the live long night I courted pretty Polly the live long night But I slept on her grave the best part of last night Pretty Polly, Pretty Polly, come and go along with me. Polly oh Polly, come and go along with me. Before we get married some pleasure we'll see. She jumped up behind him and away they did ride. She jumped up behind him and away they did ride To the wild running river, to the wild country side. They rode a little further and what did they spy? They rode a little further and what did they spy? A newly dug grave and a spade lying by. Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm scared of your ways. Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm scared of your ways. I'm scared you will lead my poor body astray. The rings on the fingers of her lily white hand.
