Testo Pretty Polly - Pete Seeger
Testo della canzone Pretty Polly (Pete Seeger), tratta dall'album American Ballads
I courted pretty Polly to live long night
I courted pretty Polly to live a long night
And left her next morning before it was light
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you can go along with me
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you can go along with me
Before we get married, some pleasure to see
He led her over hills and the valleys so deep
He led her over hills and the valleys so deep
Until pretty Polly, she commenced to weep
He led her a little farther, and what did they spy?
He led her a little farther, and what did they spy?
Bought a new dug grave, with a spade lying by
Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm afraid of your way
Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm afraid of your way
I'm afraid you'll lead my poor body astray
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you guessed just 'bout right
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you guessed just 'bout right
I dug on your grave, biggest part of last night
She throwed her arms around him and trembled with fear
She throwed her arms around him and trembled with fear
How can you kill a girl that was to you so dear?
He stabbed her to the heart, her heart's blood it did flow
He stabbed her to the heart, her heart's blood it did flow
Into the grave, pretty Polly did go
He throwed a little dirt over her and started for home
He throwed a little dirt over her and started for home
Leaving nothing behind but the wild birds to moan
