Testo Pretty Polly - Ralph Stanley, Friends & Patty Loveless
Testo della canzone Pretty Polly (Ralph Stanley, Friends & Patty Loveless), tratta dall'album Clinch Mountain Country
Pretty Polly
Oh Polly, Pretty Polly, would you take me unkind
Polly, Pretty Polly, would you take me unkind
Will You set beside me and tell me your mind
Well my mind is to marry and never to part
My mind is to marry and never to part
The first time I saw you it wounded my heart
Oh Polly Pretty Polly come go along with me
Polly Pretty Polly come go along with me
Before we get married some pleasures to see
Oh he led her over mountains and valleys so deep
He led her over hills and valleys so deep
Polly mistrusted and then began to weep
Saying Willie, Little Willie, I'm afraid to of your ways
Willie, Little Willie, I'm afraid of your ways
The way you've been rambling you'll lead me astray
Oh Polly, Pretty Polly, your guess is about right
Polly, Pretty Polly, your guess is about right
I dug on your grave the biggest part of last night
Oh she knelt down before him and what did she spy
She knelt down before him and what did she spy
A knew dug grave with the spade lying by
She knelt down before him pleading for her life
She knelt down before him a pleading for her life
Let me be a single girl if I can't be your wife
Oh Polly, Pretty Polly that never can be
Polly, Pretty Polly that never can be
Your past reputation's been trouble to me
The he opened up her bosoms as white as any snow
He opened up her bosoms as white as any snow
Stabbed her through the heart as the blood did oh but flow
Then he went down to the jailhouse and what did he say
He went down to the jailhouse and what did he say
I've killed Pretty Polly and trying to get away
