Pretty Peggy-O Bob Dylan
Pretty Peggy O
By Bob Dylan
One verse intro (w/harp)
I've been around this whole country
But I never yet found Fennario.
Well, as [G]we marched down, as we marched down
Well, as we marched down to Fe[D]nnerio'
Well, our [G]captain fell in love with a [C]lady like a dove
the [D]name that she had was Pretty [G]Peggy-O
Well, what will your mother say, what will your mother say
What will your mother say, Pretty Peggy-O
What will your mother say to know you're going away
You're never, never, never coming back-io ?
Come a-running down your stairs
Come a-running down your stairs
Come a-running down your stairs, Pretty Peggy-O
Come a-running down your stairs
Combing back your yellow hair
You're the prettiest darned girl I ever seen-io.
The lieutenant he has gone
The lieutenant he has gone
The lieutenant he has gone, Pretty Peggy-O
The lieutenant he has gone, long gone
He's a-riding down in Texas with the rodeo.
Well, our captain he is dead, our captain he is dead
Our captain he is dead, Pretty Peggy-O
Well, our captain he is dead, died for a maid
He's buried somewhere in Louisiana-O.
Enjoy!
