Peggy-O - Among The Oak & Ash

As we rowed out

To Fenarrio

As we rowed out

To Fenarrio

Our captain fell in love

With a lady like a dove

And he called her by name

Peggy-o

Won’t you come with me

Pretty Peggy-o?

Won’t you come with me

Pretty Peggy-o?

If you come with me

We’ll cross the great, blue sea

Won’t you marry me

Pretty Peggy-o?

I cannot marry you

A sailor, no

I cannot marry you

A sailor, no

I cannot marry you

And cross the ocean blue

I cannot marry you

A sailor, no

What would your mother say

Peggy-o?

What would your mother say

Pretty Peggy-o?

What would your mother say

If I told her you could stay?

What would your mother say

Peggy-o?

For this gilded dove

Peggy-o

And for this gilded dove

Pretty Peggy-o

And for this gilded dove

Our captain died for love
