As we marched down to Faneri-o

 As we marched down to Faneri-o

 Our captain fell n 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 ar-e-o

 What will your mother say, pretry 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 Faneri-o?



 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 ar-e-o

 Destroying all the ladies in the ar-e-o
