Handsome Molly
Oh, I wish I was in London, hmm, hmm,
Or some other seaport town;
Get myself a steamboat
To sail the ocean 'round.
While sailin' 'round the ocean, hmm, hmm
While sailin' 'round the sea,
I think of handsome Molly
Wherever you might be.
Don't you remember, Molly, hmm, hmm,
You gave me your right hand,
And say that ever you married
I would be the man?
But you broke your promise, hmm, hmm,
Go with whom you please.
My poor heart is achin',
An' you are at your ease.
I go down to the river, hmm, hmm,
While everyone's asleep.
I think of handsome Molly
An' I begin to weep.
An' I never will get married, no, no,
Oh, as long as to give (?).
An' I'll never look at another man
As long as I live, hmm, hmm.
So, I wish I was in London, hmm, hmm,
Or some other seaport town,
Get myself a steamboat
To sail the ocean 'round.
