"Handsome Molly" lyrics
Valerie June & Bill Frisell Lyrics
"Handsome Molly"
Well I wish was in London
Or some other seaport town
Step my foot in a steamboat
And sail the ocean round
Sailing round the ocean
Sailing round the sea
I'd think of Handsome Molly
Wherever she may be
I saw her at church last Sunday
She passed me on by
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
Her hair as black as a Raven's
Her eyes were black as coal
Her teeth shown like lilies
Out in the morning cold
Now do you remember Molly
You give me your right hand
Said if you ever married
I'd be your man
But you broke your promise
Go with whom you please
My poor heart is aching
You are at your ease
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
I'd put my foot on a steamboat
I'd sail the ocean 'round
I'd put my foot on a steamboat
I'd sail the ocean 'round
