paroles de chanson Handsome Molly - Ralph Stanley

Well I wish that I was in London
Or some other seaport town
Step my foot in a steamboat
And sail the ocean round

Sailing round the ocean
Sailing round the sea
I'd think of Handsome Molly
Wherever she may be

Well I saw her at church on Sunday
She passed me on by
I knew her mind was changing
By the rolling of her eye

Don'lt you remember Molly
When you give me your right hand
Said if you ever married
Then I'd be the man

Sailing round the ocean
Sailing round the sea
I'd think of Handsome Molly
Wherever she may be

Now you've broke your promise
Go marry who you please
Why my poor heart is ache'in
And hopin' to get some ease

Her hair was black as a raven
Her eyes were black as coal
Her cheeks was like lilies
Out in the morning grown.

Sailing round the ocean
Sailing round the sea
I'd think of Handsome Molly
Wherever she may be
